Test Sites: Calder (360G-Wellcome-209331_Z_17_Z)
Test Sites is a series of Arts Catalyst curatorial co-inquiries around the UK into matters of concern connected with environmental change – such as flooding, pollution, and species loss. These co-inquiries are being conducted in the context of "planetary health": the understanding that human health and well-being are interdependent with our political, economic and social systems and the health of the Earth’s natural systems. At each site, invited artists will collaborate with local people and groups, as well as scientists, ecologists, historians, and local experts who study these systems and environments. The programme will take the form of collaborative art and science research, leading to site-specific artworks, events and films. In the Calder valley, we are working with artist Ruth Levene, in partnership with the Canal and River Trust, universities, and other groups, to research water governance in relation to human health and wellbeing and the resilience of communities and ecologies. Through the Calder Valley Test Site, activities that draw out the knowledge and expertise from other Test Sites, and other organisational development, Arts Catalyst will develop its expertise in curatorial co-inquiry and expand its capacity to work with research teams and universities.
