resting space (for migrating birds) 2026
An open, hand-drawn text and graphic score . It was developed during the GroundWork residency in 2026 and informed by a visit to the RSPF Frampton Marsh nature reserve, a sanctuary designed to support migrating birds. The score draws its structural framework from the movement of bird migration — arrival, nourishment and trajectory.
listening with the wash- a small publication for listening and playing 2026
listening with the wash is a sound art project which I developed during the GroundWork residency in Norfolk in summer 2026. I explored listening as relational, perceptual and ecological practice around the Wash Estuary. Learning about the complex ecological, political and economic pressures that shape its fragile ecosystem led me to consider how we might care for a place without needing to enter, possess or control it. Sound, by its very nature, resists possession; it emerges, resonates and disappears, crossing political and geographical borders.
Taking the form of a small artist publication, using text and graphics as catalysts for listening, both actual and imagined sound. Each score emerged from an encounter with the estuary, its ecological succession, geographical borders, natural inaccessibility and privatisation of land. The publication is designed to be taken away and activated elsewhere, where each reading becomes a new listening experience shaped by its surrounding, memory and imagination.
bridges in the air- a collection of text and graphic scores 2020-2026
These graphic and text scores emerge from ordinary moments in everyday life, often triggered by a passing thought or observation. Perhaps they amuse me, puzzle me or unsettle me- and they begin to linger, shifting and tilting, until they start turning into something else. Staying with them long enough, playing and drawing, until their inner worlds begin to unfold.
