James Aldridge and the Art of Neuroqueering Nature


Listen Later

James Aldridge is a visual artist based in Wiltshire, UK who works with people and places. James' practice explores the place of visual arts processes within learning and wellbeing, at a time of climate and ecological crisis, and particularly the importance of including queer and neurodivergent voices/experiences within this work.

In this episode, Emily and James talk neuroqueering, nature and neurodivergence whilst comparing their practices as walking creatives.
