Art Walking Group - Winter

Cliff is an artist based at Spike Island, Bristol. He explores ideas of identity, class, migration, place and memory and works across drawing, printmaking, photography, moving image and a type of wlaking that some consider performance work. He is interested as walking as a means of connection and sharing and as a way of exploring our connection to place.

Cliff Andrade

An informal walking group for anyone interested in walking as connection and collaboration, and as a way of engaging with the city and ideas

Spike Island, Bristol

This is the second in what will become a regular (quarterley) walking group aimed at exploring walking as a means of connection, thinking and art making. With a playful and curious approach. Each time we will meet at Spike Island and then venture into the surrounding neighbourhoods. Every walk will have a different theme. The walks will offer an act of collective close looking and reimagining – opening up spaces we don’t usually notice to make visible different ways of being in, and thinking about, the city, space and connection. The theme for this second walk will be 'winter'. Walkers are invited to bring along anything they have on this that they may wish to share with the group (poem, article, book, song, social media post, letter, snack, dance etc.). I will bring along several texts that I will stop and share along the route, which we can reflect on as we go. Actively sharing is not demanded nor expected. It might be that your way of sharing is to simply listen. This is very welcome. Walkers are encouraged to participate and share in whatever way they feel comfortable and able. You do not have to stay for the whole length of the walk and can leave and join as suits you. Meet outside the Spike Island main entrance (or in the foyer if weather is unfriendly). We will walk for approx. 4 hours and will stop for a break for lunch. Any questions do feel free to get in touch. Please dress accordingly. Dogs and children welcome. If you have questions about parking please contact Spike Island directly. With warmth, Cliff
