Art as a catalyst for conversations, critical thinking and collaborative action.
It’s a funny term – ‘artist’ – a word that not everyone interprets in the same way. We use it to describe people who have a creative practice and use creativity to engage others and to express what matters to them. All PLACE artists are keenly involved in using their work to focus on environmental issues, ecology and/or socio-ecological practice and enquiry.
PLACE brings together artists from many disciplines, working in media including but not limited to: visual art (e.g. photography, painting, printmaking, film, illustration, animation); music; audio production; sculpture and 3D work; poetry, text and language-based art; performance (including theatre, storytelling, dance); social practice and ecosocial practice.
