Drawing is something I use constantly, it’s my go-to medium for all kinds of research and when I am feeling anxious I doddle, when I’m feeling low I draw, when I want to connect to the landscape there is nothing that does that better than drawing…

 Drawing is central to my practice because it is how I start to  think about connecting with the space,  grounding me in experience rather than outside of it. I feel it is a way of knowing that draws on judgement, memory, imagination and metaphor. Through drawing, I grapple with form in space using line, shape and mark on a flat surface, allowing connections to emerge through physical engagement rather than pre-determined ideas. Drawing looks at the world in the round: open, relational and responsive, rather than framed, isolated or fixed.
