This April printmaker Ursula Pretsch ventured to the polar North for an artist residency in Longyearbyen, Svalbard, with Spitsbergen Artists Center. In this talk she will share some of the stories from her time at 78°N and further travel through arctic Norway. Carefully selected photographs will take you to a place of extraordinary natural beauty and fragility, full of inspiration and where the consequences of climate change are first seen and felt.
Tickets are free but donations to the upkeep of the church building are welcome.
