Anne Marie Culhane is an artist who works with Jo Salter and others on the wonderful project Tidelines, which brings together arts, science, action and research, working with communities and the public, to celebrate and care for the Exe estuary and coast, and to find ways to adapt and respond collectively to the changes caused by climate breakdown and species loss.
Anne Marie relates the poignant story of the Salmon, who hang out in the Exe estuary while they adapt from salt to fresh water, before they swim upstream, or try to, where the few extraordinary survivors who leap over fifteen weirs and escape the predatory seal get to spawn in the beautiful shaded upper reaches of the Exe. The Tidelines project Salmon Run is a community relay race, and ultramarathon for the ultrafit, along that 45 mile route, that raises awareness of the salmon and their plight.
