Barbara Touati-Evans

I am an award-winning visual artist using moving image to create video art and installations, often incorporating multidisciplinary, site-specific and live artworks. The main focus of my work is how art and technology can be used to explore the embodiment of space by the self and other, while challenging notions of absence and presence, real and simulated, and live versus mediated experience. I use specialised equipment and innovative filmmaking techniques to engage audiences, allowing them to bring their own sense of self and experiences to the artworks.

Hello! I’m a creative family and brand photographer making uplifting images to build connection. A former architect with 17 years’ photographic experience, my approach is inclusive and collaborative. My work helps to captivate and convert audiences for like-minded clients by reflecting their values and bringing creations to life. I carry out portraits & headshots; behind-the-scenes & lifestyle content; event coverage; and spatial or product photography. My portfolio includes work with designers, performers, makers, sustainable brands and entrepreneurs.

I am a theatre performer, movement practitioner, educator, and parent artist. I trained in the UK, Malta, and Greece, and have worked on performance projects and interdisciplinary collaborations in Europe and the UK for the past 15 years. My creative practice is informed by contemporary performance devising. The work is physical, visual and poetic; it shifts between presence and representation, layers mythologies with true stories and looks for surprising uses of movement, sound and objects. My current creative work focuses on the natural world, ecology and outdoor arts. In my research and projects, I look for meaningful ways to weave the natural world into my movement language, choreographies and performance artworks.
