Paper making, the production of academic papers, is an increasingly important and interesting part of the work of artists, and in particular artists working with environmental and ecological issues. This opportunity was recently highlighted by Dave Borthwick on belhalf of Lydia Bach and Kate Foster:
The Paper Makers project, funded by the British Ecological Society, aims to create a dialogue between early career artists and scientists focussing on human impacts on biodiversity, with the overall aim to generate collaborative work for a wider audience.
To do so five pairs of early career artists and scientist will get together to discuss the content of one scientific paper and create five piece of work based on these discussions. The progress and process of the creation of the artwork to a wider audience.
More information can be found at: http://the-paper-makers.blogspot.co.uk/ .
We are looking for artists and scientists to apply to join us by 15th of September.
