Artist Statement
I am an artist, metalworker, and environment sector strategist. My practice inhabits the space between botany, zoology and anthropology, often refencing ecological processes as a lens through which to interrogate humanity. I feel that processes such as Succession, where “change in an ecosystem is brought about by the progressive replacement of one community by another”, speak as much to the layering of our society as they do to colonising plants. Colonial narratives feature strongly in my work, as do the hierarchical taxonomies that perpetuate inequality. In both my artistic and environmental practices, I wants to make spaces where creativity can inspire people to think more about their connection to nature, and their role in safeguarding its future.
