About the Artists
Creative in Nature
Creative in Nature lead creative art workshops with nature at their heart. The artists explore how art, creativity & the importance of nature can help to educate, communicate and inspire.
Salt Road & The Watercourse Way
The Watercourse Way is a Salt Road visual artist-led program which responds to the climate and ecological crisis, creatively exploring connections between water and its edges. Water flows through our bodies, weaves through our landscapes, and is what we need to survive. The artistic approach is also watery, in the sense that we explore the wisdom of water and flow as a state of being. Taking the idea that we are nature, the project dwells within vast fields of reference; combining climate science and myth; exploring the co-production of knowledge and the fluid intersections between art and science.
This event is part of The Big Draw Festival 2025.
