curating climate

super/collider were commissioned by Signal Film and Media with Forestry England to co-produce a new artwork with local participants. super/collider and the local participants explored experiences of forest spaces. we looked into the different histories of Grizedale Forest and how it is being managed in the face of the climate crisis, with a series of visits between May and August 2022.

Curating Climate: Nature NOW was exhibited at Grizedale Forest Visitor Centre from Mon 26 September – Sun 30 October 2022. We installed photographic prints, a wall of Polaroids, an audio-video installation and a collaborative zine. The curation of the exhibition was inspired by the conversations we had with the participants about their experiences of the forest, and their thoughts about the climate crisis.
