A new exhibition capturing the changing moods of the River Wye is being staged at Chepstow Museum.

Flow/Llif – The River Wye from Source to Sea by Welsh artist Lucy Burden is on display at the museum until June 9.

The exhibition explores the full journey of the River Wye, from its origins at Pumlumon to its tidal meeting with the Severn in Chepstow.

Cllr Peter Strong, chairman of Monmouthshire County Council, said: "Visitors have been travelling to this valley for centuries, seeking the picturesque turn in the river or the sudden drama of a cliff.

"Lucy’s paintings carry that lineage forward—not as a repetition, but as a modern reading."

The exhibition connects with the museum’s Wye Tour Gallery and includes a short film by Steve Bennett, created during the Wye Valley Walk’s 50th Anniversary events led by Ruth Waycott.

Cllr Sara Burch, MCC's cabinet member for rural affairs, housing and tourism, said: "The Wye Valley has been drawing tourists and artists to our region for years.

"I would urge all those who can to visit this exhibition to see the beauty of the Wye captured quite magnificently.

"The exhibition is just another wonderful reason to visit Chepstow Museum, the town as a whole and Monmouthshire itself."

The exhibition was developed with support from Wye Valley National Landscape, the Wye Valley Walk Partnership, and Monmouthshire Museums.

Following its run in Chepstow, it will travel to The Pavilion in Hereford, where it will be expanded with additional works.
