This eco-art workshop focuses on relationship between deforestation and climate change, addressing the importance of preserving and maintaining trees (particularly ancient and deciduous).
Activities:
Reflective walk around the grounds of Krowji Studios interacting with the trees. This walk will include:
grounding mediation to support wellbeing in the face of climate grief, anxiety and rage
foraging and gathering materials to print with later in the workshop
practices of more-than-human storytelling as a means of perspective taking and empathy building
Discussion as a group around our feelings about climate change, and how we build strategies for wellbeing, adaptation, resilience and agency.
Printing with beautiful home-made, plant-based inks on rice and rag papers, and an introduction to my own contact printing method.
Collaborative printmaking exercise
