BIOGRAPHY

As an artist, my work serves as a response to the decline in wildlife populations across the globe, a crisis driven by human activities such as habitat fragmentation, industrial agricultural expansion, and resource extraction. Through a multidisciplinary approach using biological elements - like mammal skulls, sonograms, soil, textiles, and botanical specimens - I aim to construct an immersive ecological narrative to bring attention to human-caused species decline.

Originating from North Yorkshire, England, and later relocating to Canada in 2016, I returned to school to pursue a career in wildlife ecology and conservation, culminating in my current role as a field technician involved in wild bird research across western Canada. Using historical alternative photographic techniques, I explore themes of ecological diversity and resilience within human-caused species decline. Deeply informed by my experiences working in wildlife research, my work has a special focus in acoustic ecology, avian migration patterns, and broader ecosystem dynamics. My educational background includes a BA in Photography, a Diploma in Fish, Wildlife, and Recreation, and an independent research residency within Yellowstone National Park, USA.
