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 multiple 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 my approach. My recent research, supported by Arts Council England, focuses on developing sustainable biomaterials. Using waste products—such as coffee grounds—in 3D printing technology, I create work that highlights the overconsumption of natural resources.

​

Collaborating with the environmental sector has deepened my understanding of environmental policy and its practical application. Through my work with organisations such as Natural England and the Broads Authority, as well as my contributions to Local Nature Recovery Strategy (LNRS) projects across England, I help strengthen connections between communities and nature.​​

​

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.

​
