Session details:

** BOOKING NOW CLOSED **

An afternoon of thought-provoking online presentations from north east artists and crafters who use materials derived from the landscape, revealing how significant this is to their practice.

We'll also hear about the fascinating work of the Beasts2Craft European Research Council Team conducting parchment analysis on the Book of Deer; looking at proteins and DNA in the animal skin used to make the parchment, and what this reveals about the source of the animals and the book's production.

This is followed by a Q&A session.

This event is aimed at adults and is free to attend.
