About

Hello! Welcome!

Theresa, a dog hair material researcher, artist and photographer based in London and a recent graduate of Camberwell College of Arts, UAL. As an environmental activist with a curiosity for the blend between art and science, she aims to repurpose the unnecessary excess dog hair going to waste in ongoing material research. Hopeful in making change in the climate crisis, one dog hair at a time. 

Would you believe, on average, 5kg of dog hair goes to waste every week in only 1 of the many dog groomers in London. With this in mind, it only takes 15 dog groomers in a 2-mile radius to produce an excess mass of 3.6 tonnes of waste contributing to landfill. Too beautiful for the bin, what to do with all that fur? Over the past year, she has collaborated with 50+ dog owners and local dog groomers, collecting their ‘waste’ in hope to redirect it. Promoting an otherwise unwanted material and encouraging it to be repurposed.
