Beauty & Utility
About the project
Meadow Arts commissioned three artists from our Creative Practitioner network to create a series of projects that engaged with the community, reflected the seasons and captured the changing environmental conditions and biodiversity of Avon Meadows Community Wetlands in Pershore.
The project was a new partnership with the Floodplain Meadows Partnership hosted by the Open University School of Environment, Earth and Ecosystem Sciences, and will ran throughout the seasons of 2020-21. The artworks were intended to be ‘love letters’ to the site and the wider notions of beauty and utility associated with the ancient use of floodplain meadows in managing floodwater, providing sustainable land management and community benefit.
The project culminated in the Beauty & Utility showcase at Pershore Library at the beginning of 2022.
