Pests & Weeds is a creative animal tracking and plant foraging. It is a free two-day workshop in Bristol.
Join artists Hermione Spriggs and Tamara Colchester in a two-day workshop for young people that explores the city from the perspective of urban creatures and plants.
With the Spike Island residency studio as your base, you will be setting out with a small group to explore the surrounding area and creatively tune in to more creaturely ways of life.
Please come prepared in suitable outdoor clothing, a waterproof in case of rain, and a packed lunch. Snacks and refreshments will be provided.
This is a free event as part of Spike Island’s Ecotones engagement programme, curated by Florence Fitzgerald-Allsopp, and supported by Hauser and Wirth.
