Take Part: Drawing and Breathing
The climate crises and global pandemic have made us acutely aware of the air around us. You are invited to explore the air we breathe and where it comes from by making your own ink drawing. Visit the Conservatory during residency opening hours, pick up a postcard from a member of staff, watch the film to learn about Sam’s process, and listen to the audio, which will guide you through the activity. Amongst the calm of the plants, take a moment to draw, reflect, and breathe.
You are advised to bring your own headphones and a smartphone to access the audio. There will be a small number of headphones and devices available if you are unable to use your own. Headphones are sanitised before each use.
