*CANCELLED DUE TO POOR WEATHER* Night Walk | Emma Bush

Night Walk offers a rare opportunity to experience ‘shared acts of sensing’ on a coastal walk to Elberry Cove. Through a gentle play of communal experience we will arrive together in this place at night-time, using our bodies as sensory instruments to navigate the darkness and to notice what is already there. We will create a space for conversation and reflection on the beach where we will serve hot soup and fresh bread. The walk and conversation are suitable for beginners and all those curious to experience how shared acts of sensing might deepen our sense of togetherness with place, other humans and non-humans. Artist Emma Bush has worked with artists Mary Loveday and Anna Keleher to devise and lead Night Walk.

Moth conversations

Art & Energy will be in residence for 2 days at Torre Abbey Museum doing research and development on a new solar powered artwork that celebrates our Devon moth species.

The aim of Moth conversations is to exchange knowledge about Torbay moths, especially those that live around Torre Abbey and (weather permitting) will be viewing moths on the evening of the 9th.

The artists are looking forward to meeting moth-ers from the bay, so please do come and share your knowledge, moth stories and your ideas for the design the solar panel artwork.

We are grateful for support from:

  • Ian Hankey at The Fab Lab Plymouth for helping us build the frame

  • LOF Solar for supplying us with colourful solar cells

  • The Solar Range for their help with the electronics in the artwork and

  • GB-Sol for helping us laminate our solar panel artworks
