Thrilled to announce our speakers for the second edition of Phylum Artist Talks. Phylum Vol. II features artist, Jonathan Luckhurst @jonathanluckhurst, and Senior lecturer in the School of Architecture at the University of the West of England, Dr Fidel Meraz.

This edition explores architecture as not only a built space, but as an arena for reimagining more sustainable and inclusive futures.

Join us May 28 at 7 pm at the Trinity Centre, Bristol @bristoltrinity Tickets: link in bio.

20 minute artist presentations are followed by a live Q&A. The evening concludes with an opportunity to exchange ideas and make new connections.

Phylum Artist Talks presents artists and designers working at the intersection of ecology and social practice. Creatives today play a vital role in bridging the gap between research and positive action. Taking place in Bristol, our programme brings together established and emerging artists to share future-facing projects and explore the most pressing issues of our time.

The Global Ecological Crisis

“In the ongoing degradation of habitat and species loss, in the fires of Los Angeles and Western Canada and in the 2024 global warming milestone of temperatures exceeding the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C target, we see the consequences of a system that continually seeks to extract from nature.

“We are at a critical point in human history in which we need renewed ways of thinking. A cross-pollination of disciplines and knowledge practices. Art that goes beyond commentary to become an active participant in real systems — contributions to the world that conserve resources, promote biodiversity, and increase food sovereignty.

“Since 2021, I’ve been working towards this aim through the evolution and unification of my cross-disciplinary work in installation art, food security and land stewardship initiatives. The preliminary outcomes of this work are presented in a series of journals, collectively titled PROPOSALS FOR REIMAGINED FUTURES, as concepts for immersive public artworks and as the first step towards their realization.

“Each proposal is grounded by an immediate opportunity to collaborate with nature — improving soil, utilizing materials that connect to the circular economy, providing food not only for humans but creating habitat for pollinators and animals. As artworks, they provide a foundation for placemaking, community gathering and the enrichment of public space while at the same time playing with the viewer’s sense of the unexpected. My installations force the viewer to take aim at their perception of the built environment and natural systems and by doing so create the beginning of an awareness.” — @jonathanluckhurst
