This poetic and thought-provoking exhibition born from walking, slow time outdoors and in-depth enquiries into different elements of landscape offers an invitation to see a familiar place from a new perspective, and to ask: What next?
About
The work on show at Grizedale will distill a year of walking, camping and interviews with experts in many different fields of knowledge and experience. Through photography, poetry and installations, and creative mapping, it brings together a variety of landscapes and multiple viewpoints, and embraces the challenge of making meaningful change. Considering the environmental pressures of a changing climate and declining biodiversity how do we go forwards from here, working together?
Harriet and Rob Fraser’s projects explore the nature and culture of place and encourage debate and participation in actively caring for the natural world. Their work is underpinned by research and meetings with specialists, but crucially involves walking journeys and long periods of time in the outdoors collecting, as they term it, Data of the Heart. In addition to their own process of learning, the Frasers will bring together contributions from more than 150 people in reflection on the value of the natural world and the pressure to protect what we have, before it is too late.
