London based conceptual artist and researcher, Poppy Braddy questions what relationships are possible when all hierarchies amongst humans and non-humans are removed.
As she envisions her practice as a way of promoting a renewed interaction in and amongst our material world, achieving ontologically equal relations and having an awareness for the responsibility of care that this places on humans is at the core of her practice.
Before joining the RCA, Poppy began her artistic studies at Central Saint Martins. She went on to complete her BA in Woven Textiles at Manchester School of Art, which included time spent in exchange studying at Hong Kong Polytechnic University.
Poppy has also been involved in various collaborative projects whilst at the RCA as a woven specialist. The first with Ertunç Özcan (Turkey) and MIT (USA), weaving light emitting diodes for medical applications and the second with Graphene Textile developers Nanoloom.
