Projects
Digestive Press (2025)
Afrikaanderwijk Coöperatie’s Grondstoffenstation, Rotterdam, NL
Collaborative hands-on workshop co-hosted with Johannes Hugo Stoll exploring how discarded market waste can be broken down and reimagined as handmade paper, colour pigments and imagery. In this temporary paper factory we invited participants to think through digestion, decomposition and reuse. During the workshop we demonstrated different methods for creating pulp from waste materials and turning food waste into pigments as well as techniques for creating handmade paper. Participants were then invited to use the Digestive Press to create their own artworks.
Part of Waste Simmers a series of collaborations and events organised by Kate Price at the Afrikaanderwijk Coöperatie’s Grondstoffenstation, Rotterdam, NL to explore possibilities of their collected ‘wastes’.

Young Markers Studio - Tiny Forts & Tall Tales (2025)
Framer Framed, Amsterdam, NL
Commissioned to design and make the Young Makers Studio - an educational space for children aged 4 - 8 at Framer Framed art space in Amsterdam, NL. I created an immersive, interactive learning environment where children could actively shape and transform their surroundings based on their own stories and ideas.
In this adaptable setting made from cardboard boxes, children could use cardboard, fabric and oil pastels to collaboratively construct a dynamic world, reimagining and making spaces as they go. Inspired by post-war Junk Adventure Playgrounds, where children designed and built their own play environments out of scrap materials, Tiny Forts & Tall Tales offered the tools and opportunities for children to envision new realities.
Stand Tall Boghall (2020)
Boghall Drop in Centre, West Lothian
A public art commission for West Lothian Council with Poppy Nash to create artworks for Boghall Drop in Centre. We delivered a six month engagement program of workshops with the local community to explore local interests, traditions and oral-histories. The findings from our workshops, materials and dialogue captured through surveys and interviews with community members formed the basis of the final artworks: a digitally printed textile work and a wallpaper installation.

Unruly Methods (2019)
Kinning Park Complex, Glasgow
Collaborative project with Poppy Nash, commissioned by Stellar Quines Theatre Company to investigate womens activist clothing. In response to archival research we created a ‘Bog Coat’ clothing pattern that can esaily be created from limited means.
As part of the project we hosted a workshop at Kinning Park Complex inviting a women’s group from Govan Community Projects, to reflect on the challenges and opportunities met by women in Scotland today. Their perspectives, ideas and suggestions were made into a Bog Coat.

Say What I am Called (2018)
Caledonia Road Church, Glasgow International, Glasgow
A collaborative project with George Ridgway, Bryony Rose, Frank Polatch, Lewis Prosser, Megan Jone, Lizzie Watts and Jessie Whiteley.
This project emerged from conversations from regular seminars which supported both individual and group development. The resulting outdoor exhibition drew on the paradoxical logic of medieval riddles, bringing together independent contributions like my screenprinted banners and co-created sculptures that functioned as watering systems, ramps and pathways.
