(she/her)
I experiment in making, drawing, printing, moving image and installation to consider ecological life and death cycles and issues.
Scotland has its own mini reefs full of weird and wonderful creatures! And I want everyone to get how incredible, but also fragile and few, these special places are now.
I can’t help but weave in elements of maths, data, ecology and worry from my background – as a divemaster on the Great Barrier Reef, studying for a PhD in theoretical ecology at the University of Glasgow, travelling Africa teaching statistics, developing mathematical models for eliminating rabies, coding for a tech startup, and leading Scotland’s peatland restoration data team.
