Fiona Campbell creates sculptures and installations that she reappropriates from found and discarded materials. In this episode, she talks about how her concern for the environment is at the heart of her practice, the types of materials she looks for, how she interprets environmental issues in a visual way, her upbringing in Kenya, the mixture of shock and allure that she seeks to achieve in many of her works and the influence of her home county of Somerset on her oeuvre.
