I am a Blackwood based artist and I wanted to bring some of my workshop experiences to share within the beautiful setting of this special little forest hamlet town. I am interested in understanding ecology and I go in search of narratives that can help us reconsider our world as a cyclical and shared habitat. I believe that art can help us to learn, to think and to build positive future visions and so, I have created this playful program of workshops based on ecological themes to share with you. Hope to see you there.
