Beth Derbyshire
Artist (UK)

Beth’s work is inspired by drawing, dance/contact, communication and information systems. Through their creation and installation the work seeks to explore what it means to be an individual in a world where we, and our surroundings, are frequently categorised and classified.

Beth is currently developing the project Anthem, a trilogy of musical films, which explore, dissect and offer different concepts of ‘nation’. It is a truly epic project, expressing contemporary ideas about citizenship and nationality and investigating themes of human migration and borders.  The final part of the trilogy will be shot during the Cape Farewell Greenland expedition.
