Howling Art

As reported in the Lancashire Post:

A crowd of 150 people gathered at Preston Bus Station on Sunday (May 30) whilst a Lancashire artist filmed the group howling together in the name of art.

In the words of the said artist:

A lot of the work I make follows this idea that when we gather we become powerful. So as soon as we've been able to, I've wanted to use a simple idea to bring people back together and howl for the last wolf in England and howl and mourn for the people we've lost during the past year and the time that we've lost.

I think people understood the idea of it immediately - we come together and howl. And that's what people have done. We actually ended up with 150 people and it's a really cathartic experience to become a pack again.

Sometimes it's really difficult to explain to people what you do, but this piece really resonates with a lot of people.
