Sea Walls: Artists for Oceans is PangeaSeed Foundation’s groundbreaking public art project that brings the oceans into the streets around the world. The goal of the program is to foster emotional connections and drive positive action for our ocean by⁣: ⁣⁣⠀ ⁣⁣⁣⠀ 1. Creating environmental, educational, public artworks placed to maximise community engagement and awareness-raising ⁣⁣⠀ 2. Providing a multidisciplinary platform engaging community members in conversations about ocean issues and stewardship⁣⁣⠀ 3. Growing an inclusive, global community of concerned creatives inspired to utilize their talent to advocate for worldly matters ⁣⁣⁣⠀ ⁣⁣⁣⠀ ⁣⁣⁣⠀ Every project begins by establishing a connection with the community. Before a brush touches a wall, PangeaSeed Foundation together with the artists involved, build meaningful relationships with local stakeholders such as schools, governments, conservation organisations and community organisers to define local priorities. ⁣⁣⠀ ⁣⁣⠀ By engaging in this process, it helps them develop a curatorial framework that will touch hearts and move communities into action. ⁣⁣⁣⠀ ⁣⁣⁣⠀ Read more about Sea Walls: Artists for Oceans and their 350 global murals here: https://seawalls.org/⁣⁣⁣⠀ ⁣⁣⁣⠀ ⁣⁣⁣⠀ ⁣⁣⁣⠀ #designingwithpeople #participateindesign #letsparticipatesg #workoftheweek

Silk River by Kinetika People, explored the unique relationship between London and Kolkata through a year’s artistic exchange between communities along the Thames Estuary in London and Hooghly River in Kolkata. Through artist led workshops held in 20 communities, content was created through drawing and oral storytelling activities inspired by common themes that capture British and Indian intangible culture. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ This material inspired 20 hand-painted Bengal silk scrolls. In collaboration with Think Arts, a walk was organised with the 20 communities along both rivers. An international group of artists were then invited to take part on foot and by boat to experience the stories of the two interconnected rivers. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Read more about the project here: http://www.silkriver.co.uk ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Read more about Kinetika People here: http://www.kinetikaonline.co.uk ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #participateindesign #letsparticipatesg #designingwithpeople #workoftheweek
