Research Interests: Aimee's practice focuses on the intersection of ceramics and environmental themes, examining the Anthropocene through speculative mutations and nuclear exploration. She employs traditional ceramic methods to create fragile yet powerful sculptures that comment on natural organisms and their evolution in uncertain times. Her work often challenges perceptions of nature's beauty and threat, using porcelain to embody both strength and vulnerability.
Exhibitions and Residencies: Notable projects include the touring exhibition Radioactive Boglach (2018-2020) following her V&A residency (2019-2020), and the Confines and Mutations exhibition (2008). She has held residencies at Cove Park (2017) and the Banff Centre (2007), among others. Her works are in collections like the V&A's contemporary ceramics.
Labs/Teams: While no formal lab or team is mentioned, her practice collaborates with institutions like the Eden Project and RHS Chatsworth Flower Show, reflecting her engagement with public and environmental art contexts.
