Artist Statement
​
In my art practice, I use the raw materials of the landscapes I work in - primarily vines, willow and wood - to create woven sculptures and baskets that speak to the land and the stories that shape them. My methods are informed by the traditional techniques of basketry and other heritage crafts rooted within my home of Shropshire.
​
Background
​
I have over five years' experience delivering nature, craft and wellbeing projects and courses for adults and children on behalf of social enterprises. I strongly believe in the therapeutic and empowering value of nature and craft both on an individual and collective level.
​
My professional background is in Landscape Architecture, where I specialised in project managing heritage landscape restoration and community engagement projects, working across the UK with private and public sector organisations and grant funding bodies.​​
