Having been a member of the London group studio, Barbican Arts Group from 1987 to 1994, Liz now works in relative isolation in a rural context. The body of work built up over the last two decades explores the impact of the farming and leisure industries on the rural environment. Interest in local history and research as well as physical experience informs the work. It has been shown both locally and in Germany.
