The Art of Saving Species – Gallery
Back from the Brink recognises that for many people the arts are the medium through which they first engage with nature and wildlife. For others, creative processes may be a way to deepen an existing connection with natural environments. We hope our gallery below gives you a taste of our sessions and species, as well as some creative inspiration!

“Today our wildlife and landscapes are so often evaluated exclusively in environmental scientific terms when, in fact, they are a resource at the very heart of human creativity.”
