charlotte squire is an artist making installation and sculptural objects using textiles, salvaged objects and natural materials. she works mostly in the southwest of england athough originally from london.
human activity has disrupted nature – causing crisis in biodiversity, creating pollution that damages both ourselves and our environment – it has made precarious the natural habitats of diverse populations of the human and more than human who live with the consequences of environmental change caused by the ‘first’(industrial) world such as flooding, climate catastrophe, wild fires, pollution and so on
i am interested human interaction with nature and how that impacts different types of habitat, and how we might live in a more symbiotic way with the rhythms of the natural world, with greater environmental awareness.
I am making work to think about how we go forward in a world where overconsumption and extraction for profit has compromised the balance of the natural ecosystem.
