Recycle City Project
I co-led the Recycle City project 2022 - 2023 with design studio Stand + Stare. The project was founded by older adult Ruth Harrisson. Recycle City is a speculative city founded on the values of creativity, community, opportunity and welfare. Throughout a series of events and creative workshops we invited older adults to share their visions for the city using hands-on making and AI and VR technologies.
Feeling the Hospital
I collaborated with ceramicist Nicola Lidstone to create an ambiguous ceramic form to consider touch in the hospital environment. The form brought together work from a participatory clay workshop held with children and young people. I worked with engineers at the University of Bristol to create 3D printed models of the form. This work was funded by the Sensing Spaces of Healthcare project.
Exploring the significance of clothing to people with dementia using sensory ethnography
Textile samples created during my PhD research ‘Exploring the Significance of Clothing to People with Dementia’.’. These samples were used to explore ideas around playfulness, joy, and creative non-verbal expression.
