LOOK Climate Lab is a biennial programme exploring how photography can be a relevant and powerful medium for talking about climate change. They are transforming the gallery into a lab: bringing together researchers and artists to test their ideas and encouraging their audiences to discuss systematic changes needed for dealing with the climate crisis.
This year they’ll show projects working with the topics of rewilding and industrial heritage, growing food and regenerative farming, transport, pollution, and impacts of war. The events programme includes sustainable photography and eco-poetry workshops, artist talks, poetry readings and panel discussions. All the events are free.

Gallery 3 will be turned into a cinema, showing Grow to Eat, Imagine Bamboo and The Balance Garden – short films about community growing, sustainable building and gardening to promote mental health.
