Neuroqueer Ecologies is a new sister project to Queer River which will research Neurodivergent experiences of and perspectives on place, and what these can teach wider society in a time of crisis.

Please visit the Neuroqueer Ecologies page on the Queer River website for more information, or get in touch here.

The Ripple Effect project links with the Salisbury River Park project, to enable local people to use art and archaeology to learn about the past and future of the River Avon.

Begun in Summer 2022, this two year project has been developed by Leigh Chalmers of Wessex Archaeology and myself, through discussion with The Environment Agency.

Please see this piece that I wrote for the Wessex Archaeology website for more information on the project.

The Ripple Effect exhibition will run from 3rd November to 16th December at The Young Gallery in Salisbury, with a preview event from 6 to 8pm on Thursday 2nd November, where the Ripple Effect film will also be launched. in the meantime you can view a 10 minute vlog here.

PAC Artists' Group

PAC (Practicing Artists Commoning) was set up by Laura Eldret of the New Forest based contemporary arts organisation More Than Ponies with the support of A Space Arts, Southampton.

PaC is a peer group for artists. Together we carry out creative investigations into the New Forest area and create a forum of support, sharing, caring and exchange to strengthen one another’s practice. We meet IRL to walk, sit, talk and often eat together

For information on the other artists involved, or to order the Laughter is a Kind of Breathwork teatowel (pictured above), see the PAC page on the More Than Ponies website.

'The phrase “Laughter is a kind of breath work” was generated from a conversation between PaC members reflecting on what it is that we do together and advocating for others to do it too. The phrase is accompanied by illustrations of our time spent together in the Forest, legs on land, a mossy mule, hands in earth, sitting cross legged in circles...'
