Exploring Nature: Family Camping Tips

Posted on by Writer

Exploring Nature: Family Camping Tips – “When are we going camping?” Asked my son the other day. Camping is a highly anticipated activity in our household. As a child, I also loved camping. My parents couldn’t afford fancy trips abroad, but that didn’t matter. Our summer camping trips were filled with the best kind of adventure: exploring forests, climbing rocks, playing in streams, eating marshmallows, and listening to bedtime stories. Camping was magical and I wanted to share that magic with my kids.

I approached our first family camping adventure with excitement. I prepared for everything. I packed, packed again and packed some more. I stocked up on those “ultimate” family camping checklists and created an elaborate system of containers. Instead of feeling well prepared and ready for our camping adventure, all the lists, boxes and plans left me feeling exhausted and frustrated. Camping became a logistical nightmare.

The exhibition re-imagines the real ‘movement’ of Surrealism geographically and chronologically, and within networks from Eastern Europe to the Caribbean, Asia to North Africa, Australia to Latin America. Including nearly eight years of work produced in 45 countries,
