‘I am inspired by the history of walking and that the simple act of walking connects to so many facets of being human. Having grown up in the countryside in the UK, with our hard-fought yet increasingly endangered British ‘right to roam’ laws at my disposal, city life has since become a topic in and of itself. There are so many barriers to walking here, and yet barriers also provide a challenge.’

‘‘From walking with groceries to walking with gross eeries, walking is communication.
I goat my way to the sun on forms of pain relief.’’

‘‘Walking (in its many forms including stumbling/wheeling) is an everyday thing/action/necessity etc, but I also view and use it as an accessible tool to explore space and place... to make sense/confuse, to find weird/wonderful/horrible things, to raise and potentially answer questions, to examine how we live and why, to consider our potential futures and how we can take action to make change.’’

‘‘Going for a walk is like untangling a thread – it’s a release that opens something up and makes new connections possible.’’
