Beverley Duckworth
Working with living sculpture and installation, Beverley Duckworth creates spaces and moments which connect the smallest, poetic actions of plants with precarious issues facing humanity. Her practice centres on the afterlife of the discarded and is rooted in small acts of reparation - sewing scraps together, watering fragile seedlings and nurturing the regenerative power of composting from waste materials. Beverley has exhibited in the UK and internationally, with selected shows including: New Contemporaries, KARST, Plymouth (2024); Minor Attractions, The Mandrake Hotel, London (2024); Entanglements and Denials, Tang Museum, Dongguan, China (2024) Beverley was selected for New Contemporaries 2024, UK NewArtists City Takeover (2022) and was awarded the Gilbert Bayes Trust Scholarship (2024).
