Anna Murray is an ecological artist and creative guide whose work explores the relationship between water, pattern, ritual and collective belonging in a time of ecological change.

Working across immersive installation, moving image, drawing, sound and participatory practice, she creates experiences that invite people into slower, more reciprocal relationships with the living world. Her practice is rooted in the belief that art can cultivate not only awareness, but deep care: offering beauty, presence and ritual as catalysts for cultural and ecological renewal.

Born in Hong Kong and now based in Somerset, Murray has spent more than two decades exploring pattern as a universal language connecting nature, culture and consciousness. As co-founder of PATTERNITY, she collaborated with organisations including the Barbican, the V&A, Somerset House, Westminster Cathedral, Wellcome Collection and Google, and is the co-author of two books, A New Way of Seeing (Conran Octopus) and Be Great, Be Grateful (Penguin). Her work has been recognised by the Evening Standard as one of London's most influential people and by Wallpaper* as one of the "20 Best on the Internet."

Alongside this public practice, Murray has spent over a decade undertaking a deeply personal enquiry into ancient wells, springs and rivers, gathering field recordings, moving image and ritual practices that explore water as ancestral memory, teacher and living presence. These parallel strands now converge in WELL SPACE, an evolving body of work bridging the arts with water consciousness.

Launching with The Waters Are Speaking at Bo Lee Gallery, Bruton, in August 2026, WELL SPACE marks the culmination of more than twenty years of artistic practice and over a decade of research, inviting audiences into a renewed relationship with water before touring internationally from 2027.
