Helen Edwards’ River-Based Exhibition in Oxford ‘Breathing of Life’


Listen Later

Helen Edwards is an ecological artist, dancer, and swimmer. I am with her at her solo exhibition at Oxford’s North Wall Arts Centre, entitled Breathing of Life.  She has danced and swum in natural landscapes all her life. Connecting body, breath and imagination, she makes

aesthetic connections with environmental images – in paintings juxtaposed with underwater photography, and film. In her work she likes to bridge art and science, culture and community, all with a focus on water and ecology. She takes her approach to the pragmatics of nature restoration and to environmental projects.  In
this podcast we talk about all this, as well as her situatedness in the Oxford land and water scape, focusing on her daily water related practices, including swimming.
