Laura Hopes

Laura Hopes’s work focuses on the shifting relationship between land and people in rapidly changing climates. She has lived on the edge of Dartmoor for more than 20 years and is currently developing new work that communicates the ecological urgency of an overlooked landscape at the tipping point – upland peat bog. Her practice draws upon multiple forms of knowledge and is open to collaboration and working communally.Through extensive collaboration within the collective Still Moving, and with other academics, experts and artists in diverse fields, it stretches to encompass multi-disciplinary research, writing, dramaturgy, film, performance and installation.
