Sustainable Solstice marks the summer solstice by bringing to light some of the strategies in which artists engage to survive, thrive and be heard through fictioning and humour.
This event is part of Beaconsfield's current exhibition project Manifesto for Sustainable Experimentation. The title is imbued with irony, since making art for most artists is simultaneously unsustainable (due to lack of resource) and yet sustained by the vocational pursuit of aesthetic and political expression. We recognise ‘environment’ not only as physical landscape, but as the social and political ecosystems we inhabit and shape.
Sustainable Solstice: an alternative symposium will involve listening, talking and handling clay. Sign up here by making a minimum donation of £1. Pay what you can afford. All proceeds contribute to sustaining the project.
