This in-person workshop, led by Dr Isabel Galleymore, aims to provide deeper psychological insight into our subconscious fears about the climate crisis and empowerment through story telling.

Matching Ears in the Climate Crisis is a game about our fears and buried emotions, shared through literally making connections between symbols and sounds using red threat. Each word has the sound 'ear' (reflecting Isabel's research interest in deafness and single-sided deafness) with a consonant in front. For example, Lear, Fear, Year and Hear. And each word has a corresponding symbol, for example: a crown for Lear as in King Lear.

But what stories are created if you connect Lear with Fear for example? Perhaps because we fear that our leaders are not listening to what action needs to be taken. Multiple possibilities are available for exploration in a sharing space where we will write poems, flash fiction and share with a supportive group.
