I am an environmental artist working in response to specific locations within the natural landscape, using readily accessible materials which have significance to that site.  With a background in anthropology, education and stitched textiles, I am interested in the creative impulse of both individuals and groups responding to resonant places and ideas.                                      

My work is primarily concerned with how we respond to the natural landscape; how perceptions are determined or generated, hidden or revealed, and how they may be investigated.  My media are natural and man made fibres; found and recycled. The techniques I embrace include sculpture, paper making, felting and stitch.

By combining elements of the animal, the vegetable and the man-made, my work addresses conditions of vulnerable interdependence between the body and the landscape, and in this way, challenges 'the straight lines of certainty' (quote from anthropologist, Tim Ingold 2008:24).
