Drawing and Walking in Reciprocity with Nature: Engaging Indigenous and Eco Pedagogies

Abstract

Participants will learn about philosophies of Indigenous pedagogy and eco-based concepts to inform our understanding of walking and drawing with nature. We will create a handmade artist’s book visual journal to deepen our connection with nature through mindful exploration. Critical conversations will help bring awareness to local and global eco concerns and highlight the social practice of art for healing and reconnecting with the earth.
