Join Ceri as she interviews artist and designer Lucy McRae, recognised by Fast Company as a pioneer who's shaping the future. We get a behind-the-scenes glimpse into Lucy's artistic process as she creates conceptual sculptures, films, and wearables, exploring the impacts of emerging technologies on the human body. Tapping into her unique childhood and ballet training, Lucy explains how constantly adapting led her to approach spaces and materials as malleable.
