making of a meadow

In June 2024, super/collider were invited by Dr Jessica Potter, Researcher and MA Photography Tutor at the Royal College of Art, to the Making of a Meadow event. super/collider led moon gazing and experimental sound workshops.

Making of a Meadow brought together artists and researchers working at  the intersection of practice-based research in the arts with ecology and  restorative methodologies. With a focus on combined fieldwork in the Kent  Downs National Landscapes, the event shared practices in order to identify interdisciplinary and experimental modes of conducting, evaluating  and disseminating field research. Making of a Meadow aimed to develop  “attentive methodologies”, with a focus on how we might care for a region  of immense bio and geo diversity, it asks: how can we listen to the land,  speaking not just for it, but with it? 

We met at Rebel Farm Kent, for 24 hours of workshops spanning the different  lights and spaces of the local landscape, drawing on current ecologies of  practice that are sensitive and attentive to biodiverse habitats.
