Launch/ Th’Arctic Artist Talk and Send Off!

Th’Arctic explores personal identity in relation to situation and environment and follows Rebecca’s attempt to become one of the first British people to ski up to 300 miles pulling a pulk (sledge) from Resolute Bay to Grise Fiord, the most northerly Inuit community in Canada.

Rebecca will discuss her project prior to her expedition, with an opportunity to give her a warm send off in the Cornerhouse Bar afterwards!

During April and May Th’Arctic blog ‘stations’ and visual updates from Rebecca’s journey will be exhibited at Cornerhouse, BBC Radio Lancashire and on the BBC Big Screen in Manchester’s Exchange Square. There will also be a number of Th’Arctic events taking place, including a special artist talk at Cornerhouse with Rebecca live from her expedition!
