Project development officer for the Mendip Hills National Landscape Team Tim Haselden said his branch was “excited” to be part of the project.
National Landscapes’ chief executive John Watkins said: “Working with art and artists is a means of discovering and appreciating a richer understanding of what is important and special in these landscapes.
“In turn, this art can influence those whose voice and power dominates the sector. Challenging norms, tropes, and ways of working.”
The project is funded by Arts Council England, the Department for Environment, Farming and Rural Affairs and National Landscapes in England.
Chief executive at Arts Council England Darren Henley said: “Throughout time, our greatest artists have been inspired by England’s wonderful landscape.
“Now, we’re supporting a new generation of artists to bring to life their own awe-inspiring work in response to our natural environment.”
