Landscape, walks and journeys are Walking the Land’s source of inspiration
and the subject for their artworks and installations.Britain's longest river
provides the subject for these walks, as it flows through Gloucestershire and
close to ‘The Old Passage’ on it’s 354 km journey to the sea.
The Severn’s ferocious reputation, it’s famous Bore and the second
largest tidal range in the world, has long been held in awe by navigators, naturalists
and artists.With plans for a huge barrage project to harness the River’s
power now at an advanced stage, the state of the River could be changed permanently.
These morning ArtWalks of around 5 Km alongside the River starts from The Old
Passage Inn at Arlingham. Participants will be invited to make their own artwork
and examine ‘the walk’ and the River as their subject, perhaps reflecting
on it’s fragility. During the walk, you will be guided by photographers,
artists and lecturers; Tom Keating, Richard Keating and Kel Portman, who will
offer creative guidance, help and advice about subject choice, technique and
process.
A selection of the resulting artworks will form an exhibition on our
Walking the Land eGallery.
You’ll be back just in time for
lunch, so book a table at The Old Passage.
