Home to Land

Home to Land was the culmination of a year long residency on Coatham Marsh as part of Green TV.
Delivered in Partnership with Tees Valley Arts and Tees Wildlife, the residency, from April 2011 - May 2012 engaged with the community (to see more about the community residency please go to Green TV- education projects - green tv) the environment and the site throughout the year and was informed by the amazing knowledge of Tees Wildlife officer Steve Ashton.
Inspired by the various birds that migrated across the world specifically to feed and breed at Coatham Marsh I looked at the migratory flight paths and colour patternations of these birds to make a flock of 12 migratory windsocks, that will be displayed on Coatham Marsh and other Tees Wildlife sites around the region.
