Jennie Pedley is a socially engaged artist who explores issues affecting the health of the body, society and environment. Her commissioned works include A Is for Ageing, a silhouette film installation that combines the routines of scientists researching human ageing with those of her elderly parents; and Memory Island, a virtual environment created for Camden Arts Centre, London, which explores the experiences of people with cerebral palsy within in a Giottoesque utopia. Pedley has been commissioned by a number of British organisations including the Natural History Museum, National Trust, Paintings for Hospitals, Olympic Cultural Legacy with Ignite!, the Wellcome Trust, and various Wild Life Trusts.
