Curation
I am passionate about translating insight into creative stories and bringing them into the public domain. My dynamic approach to work building stems from a desire to enable people to walk in and follow their own journey, re-contextualising topics through culture. My work as a curator spans exhibitions and programming - each is a sustained period of ciliated collaboration and learning.
Production
I thrive in the dynamic landscape of production, operating seamlessly across, exhibition, commissioning and product; transforming briefs and conceptual visions into tangible realities. Leveraging my background in Product Design and extensive knowledge of materials and manufacturing techniques, I collaborate closely with practitioners to enhance, optimise and actualise their creations.
Research
I am inspired by understanding the relationships between the human and non-human world - investigating the intricacies of designed systems, craft practices, and the use of materials in global systems. I develop collaborative material-centred, environmental research, which contributes to evolving discourses between design, ecology and culture.
An immersive multi-disciplinary interrogation of the narrative materiality of mushrooms through contemporary design and craft practices, collaboration, research, and storytelling - Mycota engages all the senses with the embodied potential and capacities of the fungal kingdom.
