Walking piece details

A series of audio postcards produced as part of Invisible Dust’s programme Wild Eye. This programme brings together world-leading artists and conservation scientists to create a series of unique sculptures which act as a waymarker or space for nature observation within the coastal landscape from Scarborough to Whitby in North Yorkshire. The artworks and associated interpretation will encourage more local connection with and commitment to nature conservation and action on climate change, drawing cultural/ nature tourism to the areas. Ryan Gander’s sculpture We are only human (Incomplete sculpture for Scarborough to be finished by snow), at Scarborough Castle headland launched in March 2022 and also functions as a seating structure and a viewpoint for clifftop wildlife and sea views. It is hoped it will provide a waymarker to an incredible coastal view and a point of interest for residents and visitors alike., and this series of audio postcards explore themes around local heritage, coastal living and climate change through remote interviews with 30 locals people from Scarborough and Whitby.
