I am an artist working the daily corporate grind to be able to survive and feed the family.... At the end of the day there is no energy left to be creative and i can only dream about spending some time with my art suppplies....
but i have been contributing to XR arts factory whenever i can, reading about Permaculture and recently attended a course about understanding indigenous culture....
I believe that all these areas/interests should pull together and develop strategy for the kind of future our hearts know is possible :)
An online symposium exploring ideas of basic income and the need for an approach to economy that puts creativity and care at its centre. Led by a panel of artists, researchers, economists, scientists and philosophers, the symposium responds to current and ongoing planetary crises, and positions creativity and social ecology as integral to shaping policy and systems of value.
The Symposium is a joint initiative of Arts Front, BLINDSIDE and Next Wave and was supported by the City of Melbourne COVID-19 Arts Grants.
