Green Mountain 2017 invitation

Green Mountain — Sat, 05 Aug 2017 09:16:54 +0000

Dear friends. We are extending an invitation to join us for Green Mountain 2017. On 7 June 2017, devastating fires destroyed over 1000 homes in the greater Knysna and Bitou Municipal district. Green Mountain 2017 is about mapping the new growth through land art.

Where opulent green vistas once greeted the eye, now the lemon green stalks piercing charcoal soil, is an ever-present reminder of the fierce courage, the unquenchable spirit and the evergreen hope residing in the Infinite Life Intelligence.

Growth is the inevitable evidence of this hope, intrinsically holding the promise of movement, expansion, entropy, unfolding and imploding, in an ever evolving fluid existence, governed by laws of beauty, harmony and order , …Golden Mean …Fibonacci … sunflowers and pine cones… More details and the program can be found in the Green Mountain 2017 section of the website.

The inaugural Green Mountain

Green Mountain — Tue, 30 Aug 2016 09:15:34 +0000

The 2016 Green Mountain art event is a celebration of the Crocodile River Reserve – where we’ve come from and where we are going. We invite you to craft, sculpt through land-art, paint, and photograph.

Celebrating the Crocodile River Reserve

8 – 11 September 2016

After many years the custodians of the land around the Jukskei, Hennops and Crocodile rivers were recently rewarded for their perseverance and tenacity with the area acquiring its formal Reserve status. The Green Mountain organisation explores and facilitates conversations between man and nature, arts and science, head and heart.

Explore the area and its history through sound and indigenous music, ancient stories and poetry. The land offers a unique recreational space for Gauteng residents to unwind, rest and partake in environmentally aware activities. Come and join us as we celebrate both the journey to official reserve status and speculate, create and share in ideas for the future of this wonderful space.
