Jo Coupe

Born 1974, United Kingdom. Lives & Works in United Kingdom.


At Grizedale

Jo's work "tackles the complex relationship between growth and decay, exploring the ephemerality of living things and questioning what constitutes ‘life’. Her working practices invade the spheres of botany, chemistry and jewellery."

At Grizedale Jo installed a greenhouse in the forest and worked with the local school on some projects to do with growing moulds. She produced a small booklet on the work, 'Camp', which is available to buy online from our shop.
