Jemima Hall is an artist, forager and educator of ancestral skills based in Scotland where she provides her foraging and Wild Craft workshops. She encourages people of all ages to reconnect to their natural surroundings through art, craft and play whilst being educated on local plants, wild foods and elements of bushcraft.
Jemima seeks to regain a knowledge of ancestral skills through play, survival and intuition with what material is there, provided by the landscapes in each of the seasons.
Her art practice is a record of her time spent in intimate interactions with wild natural landscapes. She captures this interaction through sculpture, visual poetry, writing, drawing, film, photography and performative art.
Please get in contact if you would like to know any more about Jemima and her art practice, or if you are interested in any workshops or collaborative work.
