Crossing Borders in the Work of Perejaume
The Catalan artist Perejaume (b. 1957) visualizes the migration of art movements across geographical and political borders. In doing so, the artist offers visual forms for intangible journeys through time and space. In sharp contrast to earlier concepts of the development of art, from Vasari’s cyclical model of rise and fall to Alfred H. Barr’s linear ‘Development of Cubism and Abstract Art’, Perejaume’s drawings offer a less definitive, more suggestive, visualization of the migration of art movements.

Michelangelo Buonarroti
Michelangelo Buonarroti, commonly known as Michelangelo, was an Italian sculptor, painter, architect, and poet who is widely considered one of the most influential figures in the history of Western art. Born on March 6, 1475, in Caprese, Italy, he is renowned for his extraordinary contributions to the Renaissance period, particularly for his works in sculpture and fresco painting, which elevated the status of the artist in European society. Michelangelo's works were deeply influenced by classical antiquity, while simultaneously revolutionizing artistic techniques and stylistic trends of his era.

Making of a Meadow
Making of a Meadow is composed of a body of creative work (photographs / writing / documentation) and ambitious series of public events, that took place in the Kent Downs National Landscape between Summer 2024 and 2025, funded by the RCA AHRC Impact Acceleration Account in collaboration with the KDNL. The project is underpinned by a consideration of open field poetics and guided by a close reading of the work Fabrique du Pré by Francis Ponge, contributing to current thinking about plant intelligence, vegetal aesthetics and the power of geo and biodiversity. The project seeks to expose and reflect upon methods of creative fieldwork defined by cross disciplinary collaboration co-created through public events and workshops, furthering understanding about the relationship between practice led research, co-creation and impact activity. The project exemplifies and tests approaches to creative research within National Landscape frameworks and proposes ways of sharing and attending to these landscapes to build awareness and understanding of the importance of biodiversity. Artists Jessica Potter, Sara Trillo, Alison Neighbor, Alise Kirtley, and Matterlurgy (Helena Hunter and Mark Peter Wright) worked with different publics to engage with geo and biodiverse habitats. The workshops extended sensory responses to landscape through walking, notation, musical composition, experimental photography and approaches to language. These workshops resulted in the creation of a collective cyanotype quilt, a song for an Oak tree, scores for meadows, a phytogram animation and the design of a physical and digital meadow notebook for public use. This article advocates for interdisciplinary and immersive creative experience as essential in re-enchanting and re-learning about landscape to support and extend biodiversity literacy and practice.
