Art And Ecology
hosted by the Little Red Tree House
A workshop facilitated by ecologist Aviva Reed and Sofia Sabbagh
Enter the forest with an intention to interpret its ecological stories through the practice of your art. This day is sure to re-awaken creative juices long dormant like seeds by dedicating a day to interpreting what you learn about the local ecology through art under the mentorship of artists. We will be exploring the ecological processes of the forest then engaging in print making using plants and botanical illustration with two recognised ecological artists, both with widely varied styles.

Learning plant biology and botanical art was all about experimenting with colours, textures and exploring structures. An art and science workshop in one!
We mixed, crushed, painted and created with flowers, plants and rocks.
Thanks to CERES and Eco Explorers for hosting me!

Community Mural 2018
Facilitated mural making and study of the Wurundjeri seasons at CEREs, Joe's Market Garden.
We in Melbourne know that our seasons are unique, yet we still follow the four seasons calendar!
The Wurundjeri people followed the moon, and various signs including the weather patterns, winds, animals, plants. Noticing how one thing leads to another helps us to establish relationships with the Earth.
