Join Joanne Coates for a walk and talk discussing her Daughters of the Soil work — how farming, land, labour and image co-exist. You will set off on a guided walk through the fields, hedgerows and a place that hosts a working farm during the harvest period.
Joanne will prompt observation of seasonal change, patterns of work, and how you might capture or sketch the moment. Along the way, participants are welcome to photograph or sketch (smartphone, camera or sketchbook) - Joanne will encourage creative observation and personal response rather than technical mastery.
The walk will conclude with a shared reflection on participants' imagery & sketching, and a short discussion about sustainable, nature-friendly farming practices in an active system.
Open to all abilities, whether you prefer taking photographs, sketching, or simply walking and responding to place.
