About |
|
With an interest in the relationship between us, our bodies and nature, I use my practice to question notions of the wild and foreign, the within and without, and to explore ways of condensing the environment into a heightened sensory experience that works viscerally on the human body before mind and body reach their reward. Co-founded artist-run collaboration echo with Tonya McMullan and together with her curated a series of exhibitions and events between 2007 and 2010 in Edinburgh and Stockholm. http://echogogo.tumblr.com/ |
