The Creative Network is a free event for artists to network and share ideas. This month’s topic is art and activism, our guest speaker is Lydia Needle, an art eco-activist.
Lydia Needle ;
”With my work, I contemplate our impact on the earth, what we denude or enhance, whether that be in terms of our planet or our communities. To that end, I use waste, ecologically sound or vintage materials including textile fibres, yarns, and fabric to create dialogue about our environmental impact and the human cost of consumption.
I use a variety of methods such as sculpting, papermaking, mending and stitch to convey this visual language within my work.
I am a member of Seam Collective, and the Lead Artist and Curator of the ongoing collaborative creative project called ‘FIFTY BEES: The Interconnectedness of All Things’.”
Doors will open at 6pm. If you can’t make it in-person you will be able to join online via our YouTube live.
You can also watch our previous Creative Networks on our YouTube channel.
