As artists Clare and Charlotte of Waterweek are engaging with community for the Environmental Land Management Scheme (ELMS) pilot project about the future of the countryside and farming, we are working with the Cuckmere and Pevensey Levels Catchment Partnership who are undertaking this pilot.
We have some questions…
On 23rd Oct 2019 Waterweek was awarded the Nick Reeves award for Art and the Environment run jointly between CIWEM and CCANW
‘The award celebrates an artwork, project or field of activity by an artist (or group) that has contributed innovatively to CIWEM’s vision of “putting creativity at the heart of environmental policy and action”. This high-profile award recognises excellence in work by arts practitioners, or environmentalists engaging with arts practices, whether well-established or newly emerging, in the UK or elsewhere in the world. The focus is on rewarding identified work, not simply a person…..CIWEM, CCANW, and their collaborating partners at the forefront of evolving new thinking on these issues, are committed to highlighting positive examples of effort, talent, leadership and insight for us all.’
Dave Pritchard, chair of the judges, said: “Waterweek is a great example of how sustained interweavings of technical knowledge, imagination and arts-led social engagement can empower communities to live in a richer, deeply principled relationship with their water environment”.
