Dorset based artist, Meraki Vagary, works with ecological and sustainable practice within contemporary art to explore the connections and relationships humans have with each other as well as the natural world.
Moving from working in the Marine Biology sector, to education and the Arts, these two interests often converge to produce interesting questions that can be explored through interdisciplinary processes.
Meraki’s work can be seen in exhibitions globally as well as via Arts University Bournemouth, where she recently gained her MA in Fine Art.
