Biography

Imogen Humphris is based at the University of Groningen, The Netherlands. She is formally trained in architecture and is centrally concerned with the social landscape of urban contexts, particularly in marginalised settings. Her art-design-research practice explores notions of place and its becoming from a variety of perspectives and seeks to foster conversation around the multiplicitous nature of space. Over the last 10 years her work has become increasingly focused on the power and limitations of civic initiatives, both formal and informal, acting as a community planning facilitator, researcher and activist. During this time she has worked across a variety of international and local settings from Scotland and England to The Netherlands, Kenya and Palestine.

Imogen was a RECOMS fellow.
