Interconnection with nature

"My aim is to offer a way of re-imagining ourselves within nature, as part of nature, rather than separate from it, that's why I position the sculptures in amongst the plants and flowers, rather than on a pedestal."

The Nature Zone

The Nature Zone 

Click on the small print above (The Nature Zone) to view the video of the arundo harvest, and after school art workshops using the harvested reed to build ephemeral, nature sculptures.  Arundo donax is an invasive reed that is slurping up precious water from our desert rivers. Together we harvest it, and turn it into nature art--a good way to help the ecology while keeping ourselves creatively entertained!
