Lucy Roberts tries to unpick these usually selective attitudes towards nature by combining object, language and satire to create critical narratives of the possible outcomes of our current actions.

Influenced by larger global environmental injustices and the political vagueness surrounding them. She intends to bring awareness to these nonsensical every-day systems and subtly highlight their dysfunction and disregard for wider environmental sustainability.
