About us

Denman+Gould specialise in public and community-based art and design projects that explore our connection to place and the natural world.

As artists, makers, and researchers, we work across disciplines, from large-scale public art to film and sculpture. Driven by a passion for making, accessibility, the outdoors, and sustainability, we create work that invites people to reflect on their place within the world around them.
