The Imagining Body... ‘We are in a constant process of self-renewal and flux - beings to be imagined’
Director - Actor - Teacher
I am an interdisciplinary researcher, director and performer working across landscape, performance studies, geo-humanities and new materialist thinking. My research examines how landscapes, people and more-than-humans, intersect in a climate changed world, while also developing innovative research methodologies grounded in creative, embodied, and participatory approaches. Through research creation my practice aims to articulate a relationship between ‘bodying’, ‘imagining’ and ‘knowledging’ in which more-than-human bodies, co-produce and reveal new insights for contesting familiar ways of experiencing and being.
