Following organic processes of ephemerality and fluidity, my Art endeavours to connect people with place, revealing the threads that run through ourselves and our environment. The interrelation between ourselves and Nature vibrates itself through my practice and my life. Walking Arts forms the basis of all my work; spanning across installation, land art and participatory art. I believe there is a softness that resides in nature – a softness that can stir, heal and inspire. I am interested in what nature can evoke for us creatively – what it can mirror and unfold. I believe we open ourselves up while walking with&in nature- a liminal state – and its in this liminal state where I believe real fluidity and unfixed possibility exists. Eco-therapy is woven through my facilitated works; building safe spaces that encourage a deeper sense of understanding ourselves, each other and the eco-system which we are a part of.
