Keepers
What do we keep and what do we cast out? Susi Arnott and I have been working with a portable daylight studio on the Thames foreshore, to produce an almost indiscriminate catalogue of objects, many collected during Thames 21’s clean-up and research events.

This autumn Susi Arnott and I worked on a commission for The Economist’s Christmas special on swimming in cold, fresh water.

Bobby and Stillman
A new tidal collaboration with Dr Susi Arnott. This time we’re working with Prof. Sofia Olhede as part of UCL’s Creative Reactions science-art project.

Together they create a dialogue between a […]
