The Garden Museum in London is hosting a series of discussions about what gardens, landscape and place can mean for artistic practice in an era of climate change. This series is chaired and curated by landscape historian and critic Tim Richardson, who will be coming to Australia next March for the 2027 Australian Landscape Conference.
The next lecture will be on 20 October and can be live streamed. See https://www.gardenmuseum.org.uk/whats-on/garden-art-garden-art-and-climate-change/
The discussion will consider the role the garden plays in the way artists and gardeners re-present the natural world? Speakers include sculptor Lotte Scott, whose work draws on the landscapes of Somerset and the West Country; Miranda Whall, whose ongoing project Earth, Seed, Peat sits at the intersection of art and environmental science; and photographer and sculptor Mike Perry, whose hyperlocal studies of overlooked nature hold a quiet tension between beauty and ecological damage.
