Description

RBG Kew Wakhurst summer programme is themed around "Food security". It is a 3 month programme highlighting the importance of Kew's scientific work in this area and seeks to connect our visitors to nature in a new, innovative way. We're seeking submissions for artists of all disciplines eg. sound designers, sculpture artists, food artists etc for our Summer programme 2022. Encouraging visitors to connect with nature, these innovative, varied artworks will add a new layer to visitors' understanding and enjoyment of the landscape, encouraging them to experience nature with fresh ears and eyes! We are looking for artists that want to give a cultural response to Wakehurst and Kew science, exploring ways of connecting our audience with nature in new and innovative ways, whilst communicating some of the core work that Kew science is doing in the areas of food security and biodiversity. We are looking to commission 6 - 10 installations of different scales with budgets ranging from 5k - 30k
