Grace Rodgers (b.1976 London) is a filmmaker, photographer, sound and visual artist whose work explores place through mapping and visualising the interrelationships that exist between humans, nonhumans and land. Rooted in Systems Thinking, Ecopsychology and guided by principles of Regenerative Culture, her work seeks to make visible the often-invisible patterns and processes in our worlds, with a focus on exploring the energy of edges and zones of transition. Her background as a mentor and facilitator of socially engaged projects orientates her work towards collaborative and community practice, in turn contributing towards the deconstruction of dualistic and colonial modes of thinking. Grace completed a series of artist's residencies on the MA Arts and Place programme at Dartington Arts School, during 2021, 2022 and 2023 - please explore her practice via the links above. She lives on the North Devon coast with her family, inspired by the diverse landforms and the dynamic rhythms of ocean and shore. Her approach begins by observing carefully the natural features and bio-rhythms of each setting, noticing and noting as part of her practice-based research, adopting a sensory and embodied approach to Place. Having completed the Permaculture Design Certificate at the Apricot Centre on the Dartington Estate in 2019, her approach is to see place as a holistic system, so she includes in her process observation and appreciation of the cultural, geological, climatic, geographic and social elements of site. She is particularly drawn to immersing herself in the cycles, patterns and seasons of place. She is a graduate from the MA Arts and Place programme at Dartington Arts School: https://campus.dartington.org/study/events/arts-and-place-2023/grace-rodgers/ We are all connected. www.gracerodgers.co.uk
