About the Exhibition

Pansentient Arboriculture, a new solo exhibition by artist Sol Bailey Barker, which proposes a system of care in which trees and entire forests are considered sentient and aware — possessing a form of consciousness.

This exhibition decodes our relationship with the arboreal world, considering practices such as agroforestry, ecological preservation, and the cultural and spiritual roles of trees. Drawing on the folklore of Albion, Pansentient Arboriculture builds a bridge to the world our ancestors lived in, extending from their knowledge.

This free exhibition will run from Friday 25th April to Saturday 7th June 2025.

About this Event

For this special activation with Proposition, ZOE BEDEAUX aka T.I.P: The Invisible Prophetess, Poetess, Protest) introduces another dimension from The Public Alkhemy No.1 Series. Once again she calls down the divine provenance and providence of the Sibyls, the black doves of antiquity - The Afro Deities.

The Kiss of Venus - A Holey Sacrement

We will congregate outside of the gallery where the public will be invited to self anoint with Cosmotics WITCHCRAFTED BY VIDA Love Dust and Snapdragon Love Bombs to clear stagnant energy, realign, contemplate and commune in the highest vibration that is Love - our Goddess given right before entering the space.

Moving into the exhibition space to Sol Bailey-Barker's Pansentient Arboriculture, Bedeaux will introduce and encourage the audience to move among the spirits of the trees before entering The Temple - her meditation room.

Beverages will be served before taking ones place for a gravity defying journey into Deep Space. A Supersonic transmission - meditation where you will be introduced to the true Herstory of the first Cosmonauts - The First Spacefarers who were Women.

About the Artist

ZOE BEDEAUX AKA T.I.P The Invisible Prophetess, Poetess, Protest is an autopoietic, interdisciplinary artist and founder of Cosmotics WITCHCRAFTED BY VIDA.

She is a Witch Poet Sybil, Shemanic Practitioner, Shaktivist and Educator. A polymath working interdimensionally across many fields and mediums. Straddling the corporeal and spiritual, bringing the esoteric into the exoteric. Exploring the intersection of Medicine, Alkhemy, Magic and Art = MAMA.

Journeying primarily through text, sound and the vox she engenders to educate and ignite transformation through her practice.

Bedeaux works within the field of Cuntsciousness with particular interest in the primordial mother - the source and her many guises. Mapping her journey from reverence to irreverence and back.

As a free thinker her work and ideas are often considered subversive, disruptive, controversial… as sybil and scribe ‘her pen is her sword.’

Raised in a church choir in the northwest of the UK, on the borderlands of mythical Wales and enchanted England, Tan Jones’s work has ne'er strayed far from the ecclesiastic rituals of worship, only in tan jones’s world, the church has been burnt, the yew trees thrive in the ashes, and god is trans.

bones tan jones presents their living praxis ‘optimystic dystopia’ as a spiritual practice. an eternal storyteller, alternative realities are explored through alter egos, retellings of ancient Chinese and Celtic mythologies through creating; symphonies, operas, psalms, triptychs, sigils, stele, installations, interventions, inter-active workshops.
