INFO

My arts practice explores how nature is shifting in the face of climate change.  ​

 

Humankind’s footprint has triggered the next geological era for our planet, known as the 'Anthropocene'. Our activity has had an enormous impact, fundamentally altering the planet’s climate, geology and ecosystems. I look to reconnect people with nature and offer up new ways of understanding the deep history of our planet, as well as its future.

​​

My practice spans a variety of forms, including exhibition artworks, cross-disciplinary research, public sculpture commissions, and community-based projects. Respecting and caring for the Earth’s resources is central to all aspects of my work. Recently, with support from Arts Council England, I’ve been focusing on the development of sustainable biomaterials. By using waste products like coffee grounds in 3D printing technology, I create works that draw attention to the overconsumption of natural resources.

​​

Collaborating with the environmental sector has deepened my understanding of sustainable practices and their practical applications. In partnership with organisations such as Natural England, the Broads Authority, and Norfolk County Council's 'Local Nature Recovery Strategy' (LNRS) projects, I strengthen connections between communities and the natural world, creating a deeper sense of environmental stewardship.

​​

When working with communities, I create projects that empower people of all ages. My approach is centred on being sensitive and flexible to people’s needs, and my projects are accessible to all. I aim to enable collaboration, helping people build connections, both with each other and the planet.
