I am a performance-maker, scenographer and artist. I am currently making a series of walking pieces which focus on the rural landscape as a place for performance in which human relationships to our environment are to be re-imagined. The work is made through an extended period of immersion in a chosen place and is evolved in close collaboration with artists from a broad range of creative disciplines and experts from other fields not usually associated with performance, including scientists and people with local knowledges.
Recent productions include:
Ghost Bird (2012), a silent walk and live art installation specific to a valley in the Trough of Bowland, Lancashire.
Fissure (2011), a three day walking-performance created in the Yorkshire Dales.
Jack Scout (Sept 2010), a walking performance in which music, dance, voice and art revealed a hidden part of Morecambe Bay.
I was formerly the Co-Artistic Director, of wilson+wilson, www.wilsonandwilson.org
