I make art in response to my lived experience of place and to the multiple narratives that make up our relationships to place. I work both in the studio and on site, using camera-less photography, painting, assemblage, collecting, weave and stitch. The materials I work with are key to rooting the work in place, and contribute to 'making meaning' within the work. I use natural, recycled and repurposed materials where ever possible, and the work is often made in collaboration with the 'more-than-human' aspects of site such as the wind, the sea or found materials.

​

In this era of climate breakdown and mass extinction, my responses to place inevitably try to articulate the complexity of our collective response to this lived reality. I work with multiple different ways of knowing place, including data driven knowledge, and my embodied experience of place (often experienced through walking or wild swimming). My practice is often research-led, and I have recently begun publishing and presenting papers related to my own work and that of other environmentally engaged artists. I am increasingly interested in place-related narratives of care and repair.
