Organisation
Region
Torbay
Opening Times
11:00 – 13:00
Artist Gill Melling continues her exploration of the human impact and reliance on marine biodiversity, through the lens of communities and environments of the English Riviera UNESCO Global Geopark. Her resultant residency art series will evolve through local conversations and observations, creating mixed media “entanglements” combining reclaimed, “natural” and human processed materials.

Come and join in a discussion with Gill, Megan from the Blue Meadows Project and Grace Clifford from the Ocean Conservation Trust discussing how Gill’s residency art pieces explore the entanglement of humans with marine life. Find out about Torbay’s special sea dwellers, how Gill uses her creativity to help raise awareness of seagrass conservation and what we can all do to protect our precious resource.

Drinks and snacks will be provided.

Spaces limited to 10. Turn up on the day or book your free place to avoid disappointment.
