In the Summer of 2016, UAL’s Professor of Art in the Environment Lucy Orta took a group of MA Photography Students from London College of Communication out and beyond the walls of UAL, on a food forage in a park near Arsenal which was followed by a workshop in which they produced a response to their experiences.
