Rachael Miles
Rachael Miles is an artist, senior lecturer in visual culture and currently acting associate head of department in the School of Art and Design at The University of the West of England (UWE Bristol). Rachael’s current work includes a series of performances such as ‘The Depravation Indices: Taking stock of the FTSE’ where the 100 logos and brand identities of the United Kingdom’s top 100 FTSE index companies are conveyed through a rapid fire game of word association. A narrative (of sorts) emerges and what is revealed is the story of how these companies (Vodafone, United Utilities, Dorothy Perkins, Shell, etc.) have become entwined within the fabric of everyday life, questioning their impacts on a community.
