Landslip 2025 – Digital Collage
Royal Albert Memorial Museum (RAMM) Exeter
(Courtyard core wall)

25 March 2025 – 27 July 2025

The artist Simon Lee Dicker describes this new work as, ‘a love letter to a small stretch of Dorset coastline’ and thinks of it as a ‘sketchbook’ to test ideas. The collage of photography, film and animation capture an eroding landscape alongside a sea that is in continuous flux. Dicker says, “The cliffs crumble and slide, iron-rich streams cascade over soft blue clay before discharging on to the stony beach”.

The title Landslip refers to both the process of material transformation from a solid to a liquid state as well as the raw material of liquid clay, called ‘slip’. Dicker’s artistic practice includes ceramics: his Dynamic Collections project commission is on display in the exhibition Food: beyond the plate
