Libby Bove is a multi-disciplinary artist, whose work is centred around the repositioning of folk custom and magical practice at the forefront of daily life. Drawing on archival methodologies and documentary, her work slips between fact and fiction. Employing traditional craft processes, plausibility is woven into constructed myths; transposing ideas of ancient customs, traditions and rituals into incongruous contemporary settings, non-existent pasts, and speculative future landscapes. Recent exhibitions include: Lore & Land, Walcot Chapel (2024); Therapeutic Landscapes, Worcester University (2024); So Turns the Wheel of the M.O.T. (Solo,2023) ; Origins, Touring (2022), The Oracles, Micheal Pennie Gallery (Solo,2022).
