Rhian Cooke

Rhian Cooke is an artist working in Leeds, making work across film, animation, sculpture and installation. She explores the crossing between nature and the environment, shifting between imagination and reality. She takes inspiration from autobiographical objects, cycling, wildlife and traffic.

Her work often starts with a handmade process including textiles, painting and recycling personal old objects. She uses different forms of animation including stop motion and 3D video editing software which enables her to virtually reimagine objects and let them perform new narratives.

The objects tell on-going stories of their connection to the environment and their hidden fragility.
