Open Evening with Lynne Hull

In association with Transition Town Totnes

Colorado artist Lynne Hull has pioneered “trans-species” art, creating sculpture installations as wildlife habitat enhancement, eco-atonement for human impact. She works from the belief that artist creativity can be effectively applied to the urgent situations we face today.
Lynne has worked in the American West with a variety of wildlife agencies including state wildlife departments, the Forest Service, the Bureau of Land Management, and National Park Service. She has worked in 14 states and 8 countries, with a wide variety of wildlife agencies and communities. In 1998 she worked in Yucatan and Chiapas, Mexico with environmental NGO Pronatura. In 1993-94 she realized three projects in the U.K. courtesy of a special Fulbright Fellowship and one in Kenya on a Lila Wallace/Reader’s Digest Foundation/Arts International Residency.
Currently Lynne is working on “Migration Mileposts”, linking communities in the hemisphere who share migratory birds, and she recently completed “East Drake Pondworks”, a major Art in Public Places for the city of Fort Collins, CO where she lives. Her client list includes hawks, eagles, pine martin, osprey, owls, spider monkeys, salmon, butterflies, bees, frogs, toads, newts, bats, beaver, songbirds, otter, rock hyrax, small desert species, waterfowl and occasional humans.
