I returned to SW London two years ago and have been experiencing the seasons with fresh eyes and heightened senses after spending over a decade away, living in the heart of the African bush. Rustling in trees still makes me think ‘elephant!’. Exploring the precious urban green space is at the centre of this body of new work that celebrates London’s grasses, waterways, and skies … and all that reside there.There are themes of global warming and adverse human activity but above all SURVIVAL – protecting and making space for nature in these enclaves is critical.
