In her work, artist Caroline Wright explores coastal and inland edgelands where human and nonhuman life interact with a changing environment. Taking a phenomenological approach as a way to understand the shifts of a world in flux, for example, walking on the land and now swimming over it, and tending unproductive ground to become fertile soil, her work captures a moment within a state of fluid metamorphosis. Moving freely between drawing, printmaking, painting and three dimensions, her work often responds to sites where the dualities of loss and gain are uncomfortable neighbours.

The forthcoming interactive performance Water Vessels will take place between Hamilton MAS gallery and the beach on the Felixstowe coast on Saturday 28th November at 1.30pm. Water Vessels is part of Edgelands, a two year, multi-arts project exploring man-made and natural change along the Suffolk coast.
