Art with Nature
Navigating Local Ecology
On September 15th, 2024, 35 residents from the local area came together for a day to explore our local coastal ecology through foraging, food, and art making. We connected with neighbours to discover what nature has to offer and explored how our natural surroundings have historically sustained our communities.
Here is what we discovered about nature, sustainable foraging, and wild food cuisine, as well as our art creations, inspired by the exploration of local ecology and history. But how do we know whether something is art, nature or food?
NATURE
We learned that seaweed is food, exploring is foraging and art can become from all of them. They are all intertwined. This is what our day was really about – making those connections! Look for the seaweed icon
to explore the connections!
