-
- Samhälle och kultur
'Burnley Pendle born and bred' is how Designer and Environmental Artist Philippe Handford describes himself. With a varied career that combines the influence of high fashion and cutting edge design with the Lancashire brooks where he grew up, Philippe strives to find and highlight the beauty of the natural world. He has also left his mark on our landscape, including his work to commemorate the Pendle Witch Trials of 1612, and the Pendle Sculpture trail. He has also designed cutlery sets, kitchen appliances, won awards and rubbed shoulders with Oligarchs and Royalty. But he loves spending time in his home county, building stone stacks in rivers and using nature as his inspiration to create functional and beautiful works of art. This episode of talking rivers explores the significance of our rivers from a completely different perspective.
The Talking Rivers Podcast explores and celebrates the social, cultural and natural history of the River Ribble and its tributaries. Throughout the series we will talk to a range of people who live, work and visit our fantastic rivers and hear about what makes the Ribble Catchment so special to so many people.
