My work is about the living landscape and our relationship with it. My most recent work incorporates items collected on walks across the fields or by the sea. I am interested the customs, routines and mythologies surrounding our relationship with the land and elemental forces. I use a range of media which include found objects, assemblage, painting, photography, video, and installation. I have worked collaboratively with other artists, including writers and musicians, and participated in selected group exhibitions, film festivals and residencies across the country. I have been on the NSA Committee since 2020 and am currently NSA Chair.
