This section is dedicated to the journey Spiderflower has trod,

in celebration of the milestone of turning 20.

​

Since Spiderflower was established, immense ground has been covered, valuable findings contribute to a comprehensive body of work, yet the critical juncture we have arrived at as a global community with regard to climate change weighs heavy in this moment.

 

Looking back, I had every faith two decades ago that significant steps would have been taken by the world's corporations and governments to counteract climate change. This is not the case, we are in a crisis of global proportion and there is still so much work to do.

​

Taking this into consideration, events have been scaled back for most of 2019 / 2020 to make space for an important period of consolidation through writing and film-making in order to make Spiderflower's findings readily available to a wider audience, whilst taking first steps to establish The Centre for Earth-Engaged Performance Research.  

​

For now, the tribute below takes a look back over development and adventure, alongside celebrating some very special people and places - who have all made Spiderflower what it is today.
