Amber Valley Movers & Shakers

Artist - Research, meeting in the land, design meeting & calls, initial sketches and working towards publication illustrations

Using the leyline that runs through Amber Valley to create a poetry trail - so that residents and groups can take a mindful walk, explore both outer and their own inner landscapes through invitations to walk, sit, breathe, feel and listen to the land.

A group designed to engage local people in local social and activity events. Aimed at, but not specific to, those socially isolated by circumstance, long term illness or recuperating.  Events are shorter, easy to get to, free or as cheap as possible.
