Last week I spent the day with Debbie B and Sarah B on Allendale Common exploring the damaged and eroded blanket bogs. This is the beginning of a year long project that investigates the peat bogs of Northumberland and North Pennines both visually, sonically and their importance environmentally. Material will be collected over twelve months of the year. The development of Layerscape (peat bogs) is supported by VARC (Visual Arts for Rural Communities) and North Pennines AONB.
