Tree worship is universal, as is our symbiotic relationship to trees. Come and explore Canberra’s heritage listed, 100-year-old Cork Forest. Join a cohort of Localjinni’s as we throw light on this enchanted wood, make walking drawings, and meditate on the nature of trees. Wander with the moon and share the magic of night in collective safety.

Walking the Line

Psarades, Greece

Participants were invited to start to walk as if to their homes, following as straight a line as possible. Prompts were given that predetermined stopping and reflective points based on Fibonacci sequences. As artists came from Australia, the USA, Greece and the UK, their routes led off in very different directions.

Walking with Toddlers

‘Walking with Toddlers’ is a comic audio play about the joys and frustrations of going for a walk with a young child, co-written and co-produced by Angie Belcher (writer, director, comedian, and facilitator) and Eleanor Rycroft (Senior Lecturer in Theatre and gender historian). It uses the juxtaposition of an idealised walk imagined via ‘Minarra’s Mindful Mummies Podcast’ and the reality of walking with a toddler, to consider how care-giving can create both obstructions and opportunities when trying to get from A to B.

The Beads of Gresham Street

Walkative Project

Gresham Street, London, UK

A speculative walk through the historic City of London led by a collection of glass beads that spark narratives not just of the Roman bead workshop excavated nearby, but the history of craftmanship, material and trade in the area. By combining walking art with traditional crafted objects Katy Gillam-Hull creates new tactile ways to encounter material, time and place, a kind of material time travel.

Soundwalkscape November

My rule for this project is to take a walk on the first Monday of each month in 2023, wherever I happen to be. This month I walked to and through MOMA- the Museum of Modern Art in New York. https://soundcloud.com/ivorringham/soundwalkscape-november

Sentinel Species

WAC

Agios Achillios, Greece

People have long observed animals for signs of threatening hazards or evidence of impending environmental threats. These species, called sentinel species, are of great importance not only in “perceiving and bringing” the first signs and symptoms of the “climate crisis”, but also in “anticipating” it as sentinels. ‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬Sentinel Species Walking Encounter reverses the sentinel roles of humans and birds. Humans will enact the role of sentinels for the endangered bird species living in the area. Choosing Prespa as a location for the proposed Performance/Installation is no coincidence as Prespa is an environmentally protected area.
