School of Looking - ECO SHOWBOAT

Learn to look more slowly and closely at nature to understand the qualities and problems of the environment

Lough Key Forest Park Visitor Centre

Artists Anne Cleary and Denis Connolly of the School of Looking believe that looking closer and longer at things affords a deeper learning experience by fixing attention. Whether we regard nature as science or as art, we can better understand its qualities and its problems if we observe carefully and document accurately. This workshop invites you to use a range of simple viewing devices - bug boxes and magnifying glasses - to observe closely samples of biodiversity found on site, and to draw these using the materials provided, in a relaxed atmosphere conducive to conversation.
