Call for Submissions: Nature Drawing Nature – An Online Seminar
Kiera O’Toole
Call for Submissions: Nature Drawing Nature – an online seminar with Black Books: Drawing and Sketching Online Journal.
We are pleased to invite contributions for Nature Drawing Nature, an online seminar co-organized by Pedro Soares Neves, Black Books: Drawing and Sketching Online Journal in collaboration with Sara Schneckloth and Kiera O’Toole. The seminar will take place on April 3rd and 4th, 2025.
We invite contributions that explore the interconnectedness of humans and nature through the lens of drawing. As part of nature, everything we create—every line, every mark—emerges from and interacts with the environment. This theme emphasizes drawing as a tool for reflection, care, and awareness, urging us to consider the impact of our actions on the delicate balance of ecosystems. Inspired by ideas of biodiversity preservation as gestures of hope and responsibility, and considering drawing as an ecological act, we seek papers that address drawing as both a creative and ethical practice.
Deadline for seminar submissions: 5 of March.
We expect to share the seminar program on 15 of March.

We look forward to your contributions!
