LAND2 Symposia

LAND2 Symposium at UEA- Friday 20th May 2022: Room 0.07, Elizabeth Fry Building, University of East Anglia. A LAND2 Symposium for members and associates is being hosted by Dr. Rebecca Thomas and Professor Steve Baker. This event will showcase members' and associates' recent publications including academic works, artist books and catalogues. There is also an opportunity for members to give a pecha kucha presentation about their work in relation to the notion of landscapes: contemporary and contested.

This two-venue exhibition brings together works by those who practice collaboratively and variously as artists, poets, performers, curators and academics. All work has been made by at least two collaborators across disciplines to explore, through research and practice, ideas around landscape, place, ecology and environment.
