ThemesThe programme will address the following themes: Collaboration and shared learning: Creative partnerships and transdisciplinary collaborations Ecological Responsiveness: our understanding of place and storytelling, durational research and slow art. New Narratives and Examination/Beyond the Human:ethical and imaginative connections across species boundaries, the creative use of data to map and explore natural and human environments, including local and global perspectives The symposium builds on a longstanding collaboration between Chrysalis Arts Development, (CAD) a North Yorkshire-based visual arts organisation, and York St John University. It is designed for artists, including those with an environmental research focus, other creatives, arts and environmental organisations, academics, local authority officers and others working with place-related and environmental issues. It also draws upon CAD’s current project, ‘Mapping Marton Wood,’ an extended slow art project which weaves artists, ecologists, and the public together focusing on a 6.6-hectare local woodland. ExhibitionThere will be an exhibition of work commissioned for the Mapping Marton Wood. Previous symposium guests said,'It was really well held, just the right size, well facilitated, the conversations and questions evolved well, and the presenter and her work were both very inspiring. Thank you!' 'Fascinating look at an artists practice, where development and deeply considered motives are key' 'Thoroughly enjoyed the thoughtful approaches to working and reflection.' 'It has really opened my mind to the possibilities of bringing ecology and sustainability into my own practice, especially in partnership with other organisations.'
