Statement
I’m interested in range of psychogeographical, ludic, literary, artistic, political and deep topographical studies of urban and rural environments. In previous projects, I’ve studied the neoliberal impacts of gentrification in towns and cities, privacy and surveillance, the spatialisation of gender and also consumerism. At the moment I’m quite interested in dice walks and using the ‘wrong’ maps of other cities and towns to wander around places. I use various documentary methods such as taking photographs, writing stories and writing poems. A few years ago, I was involved in the Territories Re-imagined:International Perspectives festival. I also contributed and worked with psychogeographical groups around Yorkshire and Manchester, including the newly set up Huddersfield Psychogeographical Network, which Robert Norbury and myself recently set up.
