Artist in Residence

Iceland

During the autumn of 2023 I spent 6 weeks as an artist in residence in the East Fjords of Iceland. I spent my time exploring landscape and Icelandic folklore through ceramics and illustration. The outcome of this residency was my Austurland zine which you can read more about here, and purchase here.

Ardnamurchan

Ardnamurchan Peninsula, Scotland

July 2024

During the summer of 2024 I undertook a short residency on the Ardnamurchan peninsula. During this residency I explored the landscape, archaeology and wildlife of this remote part of the Scottish mainland, ultimately producing a small zine of poetry based on the Norse boat burial at Swordle Bay.
