New Event Announced - Alex Wilde, Art-Food-Society

Alex Wilde is an environmental artist based in Glasgow, whose works with a cross-disciplinary practice, often incorporating elements of performance, installation and film.
Her work is usually temporary in its nature, with the process of development often being as important (if not more so) than an end product or event. She views the majority of her work as collaborative and plays different roles in each situation, always as a facilitator but sometimes playing a more visible role as a performer or director.

Food - its production, distribution and consumption - is a key area of interest in her practice, particularly the social aspect of people coming together to grow, cook and eat food. She is also interested in food systems on a local and global level; the means and methods of production, exchange and sustainability.

Alex will be here on 24th Feb, 5.30-7.30pm to share her projects with us and give her view point on the concept of life friendly. We look forward to seeing you there!

'I have seen Alex's 'Broth Mix' project in Glasgow and it was a personal highlight for me in terms of bringing art, food and society together - I can't wait to see her take on Life Friendly!'
