My practice predominantly investigates our contingent dynamic with the natural environment: often probing the space between the lived and mediated experience.

Adopting variant, layered, immersive and collaborative modes of enquiry, outputs are diverse and often playful, encompassing and frequently fusing materials led approaches with digital, time based and relational art forms. Enduring interests include the parallels between the worlds of art and agriculture, as sites of durational performative activity, production, and uncertainty.

Currently I am continuing to use the small agricultural holding where I live as a research site: exploring ways to merge my life and activity on and around the farm more closely with my art practice. I am following criss-crossing paths through the fields.
