E1 was a Boots factory building situated at the fork of the long-vanished arm of the Nottingham Canal. Its former location served as the focal point for an event that ran from 1600-2013 (6-8.13pm) on the 19th October 2013.
Three performers harrying hand made chimes tuned in to the frequency of The Island to create a new version of its history in sound. Objects used in the performance were hung in the gallery, poised 'out of time' like The Island itself.

As an artist, photographer and educator based in Nottingham my artistic practice is site-specific and involves walking as a methodology to investigate a place, its history, its geology, the people who inhabit it and the stories these tell.
 
The chance encounters, staged actions and invited responses from others that take place on my journeys are documented through photographs, text and sound and are exhibited in festivals, residencies, workshops and performances.
