My practice embraces slowness. From the laborious process of unpicking a tablecloth in the video installation “Invisible threads”, or the human hourglass in the video performance “Dedicating time and presence as an act of care”, time and process are central concerns in my work. I make art to engage the viewer through shared experiences, finding poetry in the details of our connections across time and culture. Exploring personal but universal themes such as loss, transience and processes of change, I take inspiration from two main areas of interest; the domestic space, and the human relationship to nature. More recently in my ongoing project “Mother Nature Balance”, I look at the dynamic between the two, particularly through the lens of eco feminism.

Much of my work is based in digital and experimental photographic practices, as well as video installation, text, textiles, performance and found objects. The medium I work in for each project is something I spend time and care on, and must be relevant to the ideas I am exploring. In this way, the work evolves through the relationship between idea and materials. A key example being my use of Cyanotype, an old photographic process that uses sunlight for exposure. I use this to think about climate change and deep time, as in my ongoing body of work “Aqua, terra (f)lux” which explores the meeting point of land, sea and light. This is inspired by the North Yorkshire coastline and evolving threats of coastal erosion and rising sea levels, something I have become increasingly concerned with since I moved here a few years ago from Barcelona. Having always lived in a city, living in a more rural location more in tune with the rhythms of nature has had a huge impact on my practice. 

My environmental concerns impact my creative process too, as I work where possible with materials with a low carbon footprint, often recycling and repurposing, and questioning what I feel the need to produce and why. These ideas are embedded in my community art practice, where I develop projects that aim to generate discussion around nature connection and conservation.
