Our guest speakers were:
Pickle Illustration
Lauren and Liv, formally known as Pickle Illustration(opens in new window), are Birmingham based illustrators and public artists. Creating characterful and colourful outcomes, they create work ranging from painted grasshopper trails to projected window animations. Their aim is to always spread joy through illustration and to push the boundaries of where and what illustration can be.
Bryony Benge-Abbott
Bryony Benge-Abbott(opens in new window) is an interdisciplinary artist exploring our relationship to nature at the intersection of science and spirituality. Bringing different cosmologies together through painting, public art and wild drawing walks, her work focuses on expanding our sense of belonging and community in light of the ecological and climate crisis.
Jacob V Joyce
Jacob V Joyce(opens in new window) is an artist with a community facing practice that amplifies and nourishes both historical and emerging queer and decolonial narratives. Joyce’s work ranges from afro-futurist world building workshops to mural painting, comic books, performance art and punk music with their band Screaming Toenail.
