Honey Birch (they/them) is an artist/designer of narrative experiences exploring the construction of identity through space, story, and collective memory. 

By exploring archives, histories, and their own encounters as a queer adoptee, they examine the boundaries between lived and imagined lives. Their work is community and audience focused, spanning across installation, moving image, and writing.

With a practice rooted in learning, they lecture across 3D Design and Story at Oxford Brookes and Kingston University.
