About this Event
Exploring the Wetlands in Walthamstow with Lora Todorova
Join us for our second workshop as part of the series Homes and Habitats: Cultivating Connection, where we will be exploring the shifting ecologies and layered landscapes of Walthmastow Wetlands ✨
Led alongside our collaborator Lora Todorova from the London Wildlife Trust, this workshop invites participants to reflect on what home, migration and belonging mean for both human and more-than-human beings. Through a guided walking tour across the Wetlands, we will observe migratory birds, native and non-native trees, plants, and surrounding habitats, paying attention to the relationships that shape this living landscape.
Following a path through the reservoirs, we will get closer to these ecologies and record our experience collectively through conversation, sensory mapping, and drawing.
Come ready to listen, reflect, and create within a welcoming and collaborative environment ✨
The outputs from the workshop will be documented and displayed in our exhibition at Microscope Gallery, Dalston, hosted as part of the London Festival of Architecture 2026 in June. Stay tuned for more details about the exhibition over the coming weeks!
