Why public art matters & how it can help our wellbeing, with art consultant Patrica Walsh
What’s the point of public art and why does it matter?
If you’re interested in becoming more engaged and present with the world around you have a listen to this week’s guest Patricia Walsh, public art consultant, who explores the intersections of art and the natural and built environments and shows how it helps us press pause and get present with the power of art in our public places.
Patricia opens our eyes to how art in the public spaces and places around us can lift our everyday experience, help us to become more aware, appreciative and alive in the present moment, as well as engaging us in reflective thought, protest and participation with the issues that matter to us, to our communities, culture and the world we want to protect.
We cover:
Community
Commissioning
Conflict
Controversy
Conservation
Climate Change
Coherence
Connection
Calm
Patricia shows us how public art can give us pause for thought, help us connect with our environment, and bring meaning to our lives.
