Pestival is a mobile arts festival examining insect-human interactivity in bioscience, through paradigms of contemporary art, cinema, music and comedy as well as direct scientific demonstration and educational projects.
Pestival will bring together eminent international artists and scientists and local and global communities to collaborate on cutting-edge interdisciplinary art projects, placing the natural world under the microscope in order to further public understanding of our place within the biosphere.
Do you wish to help revolutionise public understanding of art and the environment and build awareness of current insect interactions with both the natural world and humankind? Come and take part in a unique event this September by volunteering time and energy. Meet other like-minded people and have fun by joining this energetic and innovative community of cutting edge scientists and artists.
Artists and activities include insect ID walks and talks; insect fashion shows with internationally renowned artist in residence Noboru Tsubaki; artist Bob and Roberta Smith’s mobile Brownfield site; insect Comedy with Robin Ince; a termite Pavilion and insect music with Robyn Hitchcock.
