FERAL PRACTICE
Stream of Consciousness is a new immersive
VR film experience by Shoreham-based
artist Feral Practice that engaged the local
community at events across the valley
2023-2024.
The 18-minute, 360 degrees VR film begins at
dawn in the hills above Westerham, exploring
the landscape where the river rises, and ends
in the Dartford Marshes at sunset, where
the Darent meets the Thames. In between
these points it journeys to and celebrates the
Darent Valley's diverse landscapes, unique
biodiversity and precious habitats, including
wildflower meadows, wetlands, chalk stream,
woodlands and agriculture. It visits the ancient
trees of Lullingstone Country Park, and links
this to the work of the painter Samuel Palmer
who lived in Shoreham in the 1830s and drew
these great oaks.
