Artes Mundi 7: Amy Franceschini / Futurefarmers

Between 21 October – 26 February 2017, Artes Mundi hosted its 7th major international exhibition and the UK’s largest contemporary art prize. The £40000 prize is open to artists whose work explores social issues which relate to the theme of ‘The Human Condition’. Watch our exclusive series of interviews with the six artists and hear a first hand account of their works, practices and perspectives. Founder of the collective FutureFarmers, Amy Franceschini gives an insight into Seed Journey which sees the return of ancient seeds to where they originated in a boat journey that takes them from Oslo to Istanbul, stopping along the way to meet like-minded farmers, artisan bread makers and organisations.
