Artist Research Methodology
2022 - Ongoing
Soft Radicle is an artist research collaboration with Perla Ramos (Mexico).
To be soft is to be fluid, vulnerable and open to the feelings / situations of others, a radicle is the first stage of germinating seed. Together Soft Radicle is a collaborative approach to art making that allows space for dialogue and exchange that is safe, warm and promoting of growth.
We work across the binary of coloniser/ colonised to explore the role that art can play in decolonising ecological activism. We do this through a creative research methodology of walking, mapping, sharing, healing, ritual making and site-specific intervention. We view relationship building as the foundation of our artistic endeavour.
