Description

Evening tour and conversation: Rona Lee – Lithic Entanglements

Join artist Dr Rona Lee for a tour of the installation ‘Lithic Entanglements’, followed by a conversation exploring the ideas that have informed this fresh and bold intervention within the Museum’s displays. Rona will reflect on the ways in which collections such as those in the Sedgwick Museum evidence not only our knowledge about the Earth but also a set of relationships to it.

Rona will be joining a panel comprising Ayesha Landon-Browne, geochemist at the University of Cambridge, Dr Liz Hide, Director, Sedgwick Museum of Earth Sciences, and Rob Theodore, Exhibitions and Displays Co-ordinator, Sedgwick Museum of Earth Sciences to discuss some of the questions and challenges around the role of minerals and mineral displays in a global sustainable future.

There will be plenty of opportunity to freely explore the installation and Museum galleries, in an atmospheric evening setting.

Free drink on arrival.
