What's On Saturday 15th June in Bristol

Events on Saturday 15th June

“Join us to enjoy a collection of original paintings and drawings by local botanical artists which record the rare and endangered plants of the Avon Gorge. The skill of botanical illustration is to create a true and accurate representation of a plant, recording details and highlighting distinguishing features in order to help botanists identify it. In botanical illustration, the emphasis is on scientific recording of roots, seeds, leaves and flowers and drawings can include the life cycle of the plant or dissections of it.”

“Drawing upon her idiosyncratic vocal style, Alexandra will guide participants through contrasting zones and unconventional vocal spaces in a voyage to discover where noise, scale, range and tone have the potential to transform into chaos. You will explore the higher and lower ends of your vocal spectrum individually and collectively as a group to seek out your edges and find your breaking point. The workshop will be an exploratory, playful and liberating experience transgressing notions of what a choir is and what a voice ‘should’ sound like.”
