Emergent Landscapes With Rob St John

9–10 December 2016 at 12.00–18.00
11 December 2016 at 12.00–16.00

Collaborate and create new visual and sonic landscapes that develop over time, through soundscaping, sculpture and lichen painting

Artist and cultural geographer Rob St John invites you to participate in an exchange between art and geography. Join him for the collective workshop activity of Cairn Building, contribute to his interactive sonic sculpture Sounding Space, hear him talk about his work or join him in discussion.

Exploring the mapping of movement, sound and growth in the newly created Tate Exchange space, the results will extend beyond three days and develop into a shared experiment in creative landscaping.
