The Human Limpet Project

By  Helen Garbett 2024
Art-based research exploring, through the creation of a contemporary wunderkammer the entangled relationship between humans, limpets and the environment over time. Limpets may seem inconsequential in the grand scheme of things but this is not the case. I am finding if given careful, prolonged attention, room to express themselves and an open-minded, receptive audience they reveal a richly entangled human-nonhuman story that unfolds over many thousands of years.
