about us
We bring individual expertise in heritage, cultural geography, artmaking, writing and facilitation to our work.
Over a decade together we have developed an integrated practice whose added depth and strength derives from our close collaborative relationship, and the support, challenge and reflective insight we can offer each other.
Bryonie Reid
I am a writer and artist and for two decades have been exploring the relationships between place, belonging, identity and memory. I am interested in the complexity and nuance that always underlie simplified public narratives of what place means to people. I value collaborative work and when I am working with others, listening and reflecting are at the core of my practice. I use these to deepen my own and others’ understanding and find fresh perspectives.
Gemma Reid
I am a freelance heritage practitioner with over 20 years’ experience in the Northern Ireland sector. Over time, I have centred on developing an ethically-informed participative approach to public engagement. I seek to build sustainable collaborative partnerships across social, cultural and political barriers. My practice reflects a strong belief in the transformative potential of heritage as a tool for positive change.
