Annie believes that it is important to rebuild our lost knowledge of the natural world. She views making as a way to consciously and creatively engage in this process.
Annie is exploring how we can re-establish a connection between the body and the environment to repair our relationship to both of these things. This work is intended to recreate the feeling of calm and bodily awareness that is so present in wild swimming. It expresses the moment of entering cold water - prickling on the skin and pressure in the chest from a shocked intake of breath.
