Research Keywords: Art & Environment, place, nature, ecology

My research is an attempt to understand the natural environment we are part of. How do we sense it and make sense of it? The resulting (art)works are an attempt to make this connection tangible. Looming environmental concerns have caused me to look specifically at the role and responsibility of the artist and to engage with active elements in the landscape. My research explores the extent to which the creative practitioner can move towards a non-human perspective.
