‘EcologyNOW’ is a hybrid museum intervention exploring links between human Forensics and animal species to challenge the position of humans at the top of the classic evolution chain. Sculptures and drawings by artist Pamela Schilderman highlight the need for conservation in the face of extinction. Deliberately provocative, this project is the result of a collaboration between the University of Birmingham, the Lapworth and the artist.

Peter Knott, Midlands Area Director, Arts Council England said: “Creativity has the power to help us make sense of the world and to explore important, pertinent environmental issues, and I am sure this work will inspire many people as it tours to museums in the Midlands and northern England.”
