Emily Hawes is an artist working with 8mm, Super 8 and 16mm film to unearth entanglements between people, places, histories and ecologies. Her practice is grounded in participatory, place-based filmmaking, and developed through forms of fieldwork, embodied research, co-authorship and collaboration. Her recent films are hand-processed using DIY developers made from materials responsibly foraged, sourced and gathered from the environments in which they are made.
