She is now most known for her live sampling performances of events and places in real time and the collective project “music for bodies” which makes sonic furniture and music to feel rather than just listen to.

“The work of  Ian Rawlinson and Nick Crowe is a poetic exploration of cultural values. Their work addresses questions around faith, politics, national identity and the environment. Often built around pairings and oppositions their video and sculptural works create an encounter with the viewer that focuses on the complexity of objects and actions in relation to their social contexts. Works like The Fireworks, The Carriers’ Prayer or The Four Horsemen operate though an unravelling of the social and ideological consequences of an action in regard to its apparent spectacle. This interest in consequence is reflected in the aesthetics of spectacle and excess that sit at the heart of their practice. In this sense the visual and aural intensity of much of their work can be seen as the discursive opening in its conversation with the viewer.”

Nick Crowe’s work explores changes in technology and their sociological effects in terms of people’s perceptions and behaviours.

His worked combines an attention to the poetics of human relations with a sometimes harsh reading of their effects. Over the past four years he has produced video, sculpture and new media and his work has addressed themes from the Iraq War to Climate Change.Crowe’s recent exhibitions include AT 25 Metres, FACT Centre, Liverpool (with Ian Rawlinson), Sammlung Witkowski at Axel Lapp Projects, Berlin and the Whitstable Biennale 2008.
