Conversation with Katie Tunn - Artist, Writer, Adventurer & Marine Conservationist

On the Irregular with Java Bere

This week I’m chatting to artist, adventurer, writer and marine conservationist Katie Tunn.

Katie lives her life in companionship with the waters: waking up to the sound of waves on the Isle of Skye, creating stunning art work inspired by the Hebridean seas, collecting litter and rescuing injured seals along the coastline and, later this year, visiting all 82 of Britain’s largest islands.

In our chat, we touch upon Katie’s relationship with her environment, the pros and cons of social media, spontaneity in creativity, the value of sometimes saying no and her experience on the channel 4 reality series Eden, where she and 22 other participants lived for a year in a remote part of Scotland and attempted to build a self-sufficient community.

Welcome to episode six with the delightful and, rather magical, Katie Tunn.
You can find more about Katie’s varied work online at katietunn.com and on instagram @katietunn and @katietunnart. Please refer to the shownotes for links.
