Notes


About 

Louise lived in Aotearoa New Zealand until 2002 before moving to the UK. Louise now works between London, Margate and Aotearoa New Zealand. 

She uses installation, moving image, photography and sound to explore humanity's evolving understanding of Earth’s environments and the cosmos. She creates objects and experiences that reflect the incomprehensible nature of reality, from the ocean floor to the night sky. Louise’s experience of living under two types of night sky, the first in low level light polluted areas in Aotearoa, and the second in higher light polluted cities in the UK, has deeply informed her practice.
