Tarkind: Painting a Living World Back Into View

Life works in relationships. Tarkind invites people to feel that truth in place. Born in 2022 from a mum and son, a field biologist, and a palawa artist, our Hobart-based collective weaves science, story, and art so care becomes culture. Inspired by living-systems thinking (Capra) and design for regeneration (Wahl), we walk and notice with iNaturalist, paint what we find so the insight lands, then plant and repair so places grow more resilient. This head, heart, and hand practice, echoed by Orr and Satish Kumar, builds tolerance, everyday care, and quiet reverence. We partner with the Great Southern BioBlitz each spring. Join us Sunday 26 October 2025 at Magical Farm and Allens Rivulet. Bring curiosity, a notebook or phone, and something to paint on.
