The Underneath, Youth Landscapers at Timber Festival, Associate Artist, March-July 2022
Working alongside Architectural Designer Will Harvey and musician Tom Harris, we worked with a small group of teenagers to develop an immersive moving image installation situated in the National Forest for the Timber Festival 2022. Inspired by months of research around mycelium, such as visiting mushroom factories and foraging in woodlands, I introduced the youths to a range of processes including photogrammetry, stop motion animation, microscope cameras, coding, and GIFs to explore the visual representation of their research.

Workshop inspired by The Way Things Go, Fischli and Weiss, National Saturday Art Club at Nottingham Trent University, 2021
Despite increased engagement and student demand since Covid-19, many institutions are now stopping the provision of the National Saturday Art Club. Now more than ever the National Saturday Art Club is an important widening participation route not just into Higher Education but also for the development of social skills and confidence. The club is still continuing at Nottingham Trent University, but more clubs across the country are needed.
