Celia's work explores site, memory and community; her current research is centred on the post-industrial landscape of the Black Country.  In unofficial residence on the site of a former Midland's vehicle manufacturing company where her gradfather was a track fitter, and which is now an Industrial Park, she's both ghost hunter and chronicler, making work that collects traces of both the past and the present.

Interested in the intersection of public and personal legacies, the work that Celia is showing is underpinned by archival research, ideas about care in relation to work, and her own family history and memories of growing up in the Black Country.

Considering dust as both an abject- and an anti-archive, she has created porcelain slipcast works made with metal grinding waste and factory floor dust to consider family history, labour and toxicity; takuhon prints that present the landscape of the factory floor; and small site/archive based paintings informed by memory and place.

Celia studied at Central St Martins, Cardiff School of Art and is currently a PhD student at Brimingham School of Art.  She is also a Fine Art lecturer at Hereford College of Arts and the founder/director of red dog.
