In this project with Andover Trees United, I worked with three local schools and their associated communities, to explore and learn about local chalkstreams. Together we developed activity backpacks, using the children's design ideas, which can now be used by ATU with local groups, to support them to learn more about the Andover area's rich ecological heritage.

The Earthworks project with Wessex Archaeology for Well City Salisbury saw me working with a group of Salisbury Residents, based in Victoria Park for 8 weekly evening sessions. Together we walked out from the park to explore the local area, documenting our experiences using art, and hearing from experts in archaeology and mapping. Spring/Summer 2022

For the Wessex Museums Trust's Wildlife in the Red and Museum Connect projects, I was asked to create two short videos, sharing ways that groups of young people could respond to objects from museum collections during the time of Covid. The first film responded to the Donald Grose Herbarium at the Wiltshire Museum in Devizes, and showed how to make and use a Biodiversity Journal. In the second, I visited Salisbury Plain before making a Great Bustard mask/headdress, inspired by the stuffed Bustards at Salisbury Museum, and the Great Bustard Group's reintroduction project on the Plain. Spring/Summer 2020

Ash Tree Stream was an art and outdoor learning project funded by Arts Council England. Working in partnership with Andover Trees United, CAS (Chapel Arts Studios) and five Andover schools, we used art as a way to learn about Ash Trees and Ash Die Back disease, within the context of Andover's cultural and natural heritage. See here for recordings of associated online events including a panel discussion on the role of art within outdoor learning. October 2019 to December 2020.

Ebb and Flow took place as part of Wessex Archaeology's events for the 2020 CBA Festival of Archaeology, the theme of which was Climate and Environment.  A film was created which followed Geoarchaeologist, Claire Mellett and myself, as we took a walk alongside the River Avon through Salisbury, exploring the relationship between the river's past and future. Alongside the main film, we produced several short films to share ways of using arts processes to document experiences of rivers (see link above). October 2020.

The Loboratory of Dissent was a collaborative artists' residency involving a group of CAS (Chapel Arts Studios) Associate Artists, working across the Winchester School of Art site, to explore the concept of Dissent, and the theme Inside/Outside. The residency began with a symposium at which Karen Wood and I shared our Urban Rural Exchange work, and ended with an installation of artwork, experiments and performances at The Winchester Gallery. My own work explored embodied experinces of the River Itchen and the WSA architecture. November to December 2019.

Two walks sharing our working practices with local people. One linked to the Urban Rural Exchange Exhibition at Spitalfields Studios, East London.

Play together, Learn Together was a research project set up by 5x5x5=creativity, exploring the role that creative, child-led practice could play, in supporting the transition of children between two Twerton based nurseries (First Steps Twerton and Twerto Infant School Nursery) and Twerton Infant School. I and fellow artist Catherine Lamont Robinson, together with musician Beth Vleminckx, were resident in the two nurseries in Spring/Summer 2018, before Catherine and I 'moved up' with the children to work alongside them and their Reception teacher in the Autumn Term.

Working with local people through the Test Valley District Council's Four Fun Fridays street festival, together with fellow CAS associate artists and Andover Museum, from a base of The Bus of Many Things.

During the Summer Term of 2018 I worked with St Andrews Primary's Year 4 children, as part of School Without Walls.
