About My Work

I am a printmaker based on the Surrey/Berkshire border, exploring our relationship with landscape in the Anthropocene.  Living in a world where human activity has shaped so much of the Earth, I am interested in how assumptions of ownership, control and access are embedded in our attitudes towards land.

My work invites viewers to reconsider their position within the landscape by questioning how the experience is altered if we relinquish our assumption of control and consider ourselves guests of nature.  I explore how a fuller understanding of place can emerge when human and ecological histories and processes are considered together.

I begin with my own connection to place developed through walking, sketching, and occasionally printing in the landscape, alongside research.  In the studio, I use a range of printmaking techniques to develop images as part of an ongoing process of enquiry. I am particularly drawn to the ways different printmaking processes generate a range of imagery that echo the complexity of the landscape itself; therefore I employ a range of printmaking techniques. Alongside editioned prints, I also create large, site-specific collaged works incorporating stitch as well as print.

My aim is not to present an idealised version of nature, or a human arcadia, but to make visible the multifaceted, more-than-human character of place and to unsettle the idea that humans are central within it.
