Neuroqueering Nature at Spud
In June/July 2024 I created an installation at Spud in the New Forest, as the result of a residency titled Neuroqueering Nature, spent exploring queer and neuroqueer perspectives on the Forest's wetlands.
A central, sculptural piece, formed from wooden furniture, found objects and Walking Pages, bound together with rope and orange twine, was joined by drawings made with clay from Avon Water (a local river), and an audio-visual piece that incorporated footage from camera traps together with video and sound of marsh, river and bog.
The central, sculptural element was also shown at The Long View conference in September 2024, in a treehouse at Beaulieu, convened by Dr Melanie Rose and Laura Eldret of More Than Ponies.
