During 2021, artistic director of Beach of Dreams, Ali Pretty, is embarking on a 500 miles journey along the Essex and Suffolk coast. This isn't just a walk though, as she's asked the local community to join her along the way and to submit a photo of each mile of the route.
These images are turned in silk flags which will be carried and planted along the way.
I visited Ali at her studio in Purfleet-on-Thames to find out more.
More information about the art project can be found on www.kinetika.co.uk/beach-of-dreams
