Working together.
What is socially engaged practice? It is a way of making art that centres people, collaboration, and shared experience. It involves working with individuals and communities through conversation, participation, and collective making, where the process of making is as important as the final outcome.
With a strong emphasis on community engagement, I collaborate with charities, museums, galleries and art organisations to invite individuals from diverse backgrounds to actively participate and co-create through textiles, forming a visual language of storytelling, empowerment, and self-care. My projects address themes of social integration, mental wellbeing, and our connection to nature. In doing, so amplifying local voices and nurturing a sense of belonging within communities.
