ALICIA HAYDEN

I am a wildlife artist, filmmaker, writer, and photographer based in Bristol; I am a passionate wildlife artivist, creating wildlife artworks which capture people’s attention and imagination, hopefully inciting a change in thought or behaviour.

I love exploring underrepresented issues such as noise pollution, light pollution, and air pollution in my work. I hope that by creating art which showcases the beauty of the natural world, as well as the impact we are having on it, people will feel motivated to protect it. In 2021, I won the David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation’s Human Impact category, and was awarded the inaugural Ingrid Beazley Award for my piece “When the Whale Sang”.

I am currently studying for a Master’s in Wildlife Filmmaking, where I am producing a film about a Zimbabwean wildlife artist called Tichaona Ncube.
