Refloating the Souvenir | Wrecked on the Intertidal Zone

‘Wrecked on The Intertidal Zone’, was an art and citizen science collective inquiry that has uncovered and highlighted local knowledge about the changing ecology, society and industry of the Thames estuary. The project was conceived by artists YoHa, Critical Art Ensemble, Andy Freeman, Fran Gallardo, and arts organisation Arts Catalyst and developed in partnership with local people in Southend and Leigh-on-Sea. This gallery of short films documents some of the different activities of the project and explores the thinking behind it, such as digging a twelve ton, forty foot cockle fishing boat out of the mud and turning it into an anti-monument, foraging for food, catching brown shrimp, exploring Canvey Island and Hadleigh Ray, writing an Epitaph of the Common Mud, and running citizen science workshops. The films were made collectively over the summers of 2015-2016 by Alistair Oldham (University of West England, Bristol), Jim Smith and Zander Mavor (Bracken Films), and James Ravinet (Royal College of Art). Additional Footage by Graham Harwood, Fran Gallardo, and Stuart Bowditch. Find out more about Wrecked on the Intertidal Zone: ╰ https://artscatalyst.org/whats-on/wre... Video description: People digging out a rotten shipping boat from thick estuary mud. There are yellow crabs living in the boat initially which the excavators remove. The people digging are using shovels and water to loosen the mud. After weeks of digging the tide comes in and they manage to get the boat to float and sail it onto a pebble beach.
