Hi!
I'm Molly (she/they). I'm a nature artist, gardener, workshop leader, and community connector based in Oxford.
I work with nature to create sumptuously textured organic work, using a wide variety of printmaking techniques, textiles, and sculpture.
My practice sits where art, gardening, and community meet.
Growing and gardening is a core part of my practice: letting the organic media shape and drive my work.
Sustainability is at the heart of what I do, using recycled, reclaimed and natural materials wherever possible to make colourful artworks and teaching others how to do it too.
My creative philosophy
What I make
A bit more about me
As a queer & Disabled person, I often feel like an outsider.
This distance from the mainstream allows me to see what may seem dirty or mundane as extraordinary and beautiful.
My work often features slug trails, weeds, and spores, things often deemed gross by society. I ask people to view these things through a different lens and appreciate their beauty.
It may be through the tactile treasure of the humble cabbage leaf, or the fortunate finding of forageable mushrooms. Or maybe the not-so-fortunate surprise of finding a rat named Pat that lives behind your kitchen sink.
My journey with chronic pain led me to find solace in nature.
Disability means I must take things slow. This allows time to appreciate the little things, letting me feel joy and survive.
I am fascinated by the seen and unseen, boring and beautiful, the domestic, and the perfectly imperfect.
Nature has the power to bring people together, through shared experiences and memories, and nourish both the community and the planet. My community work in gardening and art spaces reflect my desire to let nature heal and use it as a positive unifying force.
I am passionate about building communities
and have a range of curating, public art, and community experience.
Did you know I’ve worked as a Youth Worker with autistic children?
I also run inclusive welcoming garden spaces at Flos and The Children’s Allotment and love using nature as a way of grounding and connecting with people.
You can also find me at not-for-profit queer community company T(ART) Productions CIC as an artist, gardener, and volunteer.
I also founded queer art collective SCRAPS!
Let’s create something together
Whether you’re dreaming of a nature-inspired print to go on your wall, looking for a mindful moment of making, or planning a community project, I’d love to hear from you
