Drawn from landscape, water and the natural world, Joanna’s multi-layered work references the human condition; life, love and reconciliation.

She is currently midway on a 2-year arts project, IMMERSE, that explores the lure of wild and coastal swimming. Last year Joanna created site-specific installations for St Monans Windmill and the 495 Phonebox Gallery at Cellardyke Harbour. She is on the lookout for other potential sea/swim-related installation sites.

Joanna uses drawing, paint, print and collage techniques to construct imagery that is often rooted in emotional response. The fear and exhilaration of plunging into cold water, the latent static of an impending storm, or the landing of a huge moth on a hospital bed. Whatever our challenges, there is joy to be had.

My studio is easily accessed from Miller Terrace, or come in via the front of the house if you are walking the coastal path. Looking forward to seeing you!
