Esther Ward Inverness-shire, United Kingdom
Esther Ward describes her artistic practice as working with a lifelong interest in the connective threads of place, people and materials. She is currently exploring the paradox of powerlessness and resilience in the narratives of place.
Often site or event specific, Esther considers her work as an invitation for others to find space to connect with their own life stories. She has worked in diverse locations from derelict buildings; landscapes of historic interest; a shipping container and within museums.
