I am an artist who uses sculpture to explore narrative. My practice deals with issues around ecology and landscape. My approach excavates the history of colonial tactics to restrict movement of people and plants. My work is concerned with contradictory behaviour around the preservation and destruction of habitats and culture and how nomadic ways of being - for instance, the right to roam - break down class structures and capitalist infrastructure.
