Since we came to Aldeburgh in 2010 the Aldeburgh Beach Lookout has been the catalyst for many extraordinary art projects.

Here are a few of them.

 

ALIVE IN THE UNIVERSE

Founded in 2019, Alive in the Universe is a platform for everyone from artists, writers and poets to philosophers, theologians, and physicists to come together to express their thoughts and feelings about what it means to be alive in the universe.

Its founder is Caroline Wiseman, together with members of the Arts Club Aldeburgh Beach including artist and co-curator David Baldry, artist and co-producer Eileen Haring Woods, and artist and technical producer Lol Sargent.

Like so many people, I had always assumed creativity meant artistic creativity, especially as I have always been so passionately involved in the visual arts. Then when I bought a tiny art temple on Aldeburgh beach, I began to become interested in the phenomenon of creativity and delved deep into its mystery.

I discovered that creativity is not restricted to the arts - it is of fundamental importance to all human life. It touches each of us every moment of our lives
