Mattie O’Callaghan

Mattie is an ecological designer, writer, facilitator and gardener exploring how we can live better together on this fragile planet. Working with the land and communities, they are exploring how collaborative design, making and growing can encourage us to live more intimately with the more-than-human world.

Their most recent project, Seeding Queer Futures, emerged out of a residency at Derek Jarman’s Prospect Cottage, centres collaborative queer methods to transform our cities into wild and beautiful spaces for all. They have collaborated with BBC Arts, Haringey Council, The Garden Museum, Chelsea Physic Garden, University of Cambridge and The National Trust.
