Episode 1: Introduction

This a new pilot series of podcasts from The Work Room.  In this episode, Luke Pell introduces the Groundwork working group of dance artists who met to consider approaches to greener working practices, environmental ethos, policies, and sustainability.

At the heart of every conversation was an intention to work towards more embodied approaches to responding to climate and biodiversity injustice, in our work and our daily lives.
