Artist as Family (Meg Ulman and Patrick Jones) live in Daylesford, Australia on Djaara Country on a quarter-acre permaculture plot, home to their School of Applied Neopeasantry at Tree Elbow University. They practice a unique form of performance art, comprising how they live, get their food and medicine, and move around; performing modes of life making they call permacultural neopeasantry.
Meg and Patrick are bloggers, fermentors, writers, public speakers, goatherders, gardeners and video makers who also make music, but mostly they're a family who belong to a bloody great community and a beautiful small patch of sacred forest, and therefore they're much more than the sum of our parts.
