SALT + EARTH: Trails Interwoven - Exhibition
Threading together different practices, perspectives and learnings that relate to alternative ways of connection to the natural world, Rhiana will create a short artist-documentary film, broadly depicting the work of various commissioned artists for SALT + EARTH festival, alongside her own reflections, absorbing the themes of these works and that of further research and findings around decolonisation and the natural world. Throughout the work, Rhiana will consider her particular positionality within the climate emergency, and this perspective will be woven between the documentation of work produced for and throughout the festival.
Reflecting, unlearning, relearning … Trails Interwoven embodies these words, and will be presented as an exhibition and a conversation. It will feature the film presented as a work in process - alongside photographs, moving images and sound recordings which all contribute to the ongoing assembling of the final film.
Jumping between space and time, the ancestral, the present, the question of a future…shifting between the hills of the Kent Downs, and the forests of Trinidad, weaving together the collective, and the personal…
Providing a plethora of ideas, inspirations and insights into altering how we collectively relate to the natural world, the exhibition aims to pose pathways and portals of renewed understandings and ways of accessing the land, in a way that exudes delicacy as much as it does urgency.
