SUMMARY:The Only Animal’s Slow Social Club: Earth Pigments with Annie Simms
DESCRIPTION:The Only Animal hosts relaxed meet-ups to share methods for slow\, process-led art making using seasonal plants and other local materials. In September we will meet and work with guest artist Annie Simms. \nJoin Annie Simms underground as she contemplates the unseen life pulsing beneath our feet. In this workshop\, we will explore the animate density of soil—networks just inches wide yet stretching miles deep. Through speculative visualizations and grounded observation\, participants are invited to begin where they are and dig deep: examining microscopic symbioses\, as well as the historical and ongoing impacts of colonialism and industry on the earth’s soil. Together\, we’ll work and experiment with earth pigments and soil-collected objects.
