    SUSTAINABILITY

    "The planet doesn’t need a few of us doing this perfectly – it needs all of us trying" Katie Treggiden 

     

    PEOPLE & PLANET

    Artists are currently working in a climate emergency and Kerry is responding by collaborating with scientists at the Nature Connectedness Research Group (Derby University) to inform her activities. Human dislocation from the land and all of its diversity, has created a threefold crisis of mental ill-health, global warming and biodiversity loss. Kerry is reacting with artworks designed to explore and develop a stronger empathy between humans and our planet to protect the wellbeing of both.

    Kerry Lemon Ltd is a certified B Corporation® which is a rigorous, evidence based accreditation of socially and environmentally responsible practices. Her most recent B Corporation Impact Report 2024 is available to download from here .

    MENTORING 

    Kerry voluntarily mentors an emerging artist (self identifying as femxle/neutral) local to every public art commission she undertakes. This is to leave a skills legacy in the area by supporting womxn to develop the confidence required to create monumental public realm sculpture. 

     

    EMPLOYMENT FOR WOMXN

    Kerry is committed to creating remote, flexible employment opportunities for womxn artists and where possible caring costs are also supported.

    BIO-DIVERSITY - REGENERATIVE SUSTAINABILITY

    Kerry frequently enhances biodiversity by the subtle integration of habitat restoration in her sculpture. Recent examples have ensured a rich legacy by incorporating hedgehog, bug and bat homes to create a symbiotic relationship between the art and its local ecology. 

     

    CLIMATE CHANGE - SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS

    Kerry prioritises material and structural lifespan and creates robust artworks designed for continuous reuse. Each project is unique and she considers a radical series of approaches including developing partnerships with industry and dismantling sites for suitable waste to recycle, reuse, upcycle or hack.

  • ECOLOGI

    Kerry works with Ecologi on a monthly basis to tackle her carbon emissions and support climate projects across the globe. For more info on Ecologi please visit their website here.

     

    Charities

    Each year Kerry selects a charity and donates her time and skills to collaborate on a bespoke project.
    Her charity of choice for 2025 is the Clock Tower Sanctuary  in Brighton & Hove supporting 16-to-25 year olds who are experiencing homelessness. 
    2024 - Rainforest Foundation UK - Kerry designed a creative, immersive, sensory event to celebrate RFUK's 35 year anniversary

    2023 - Horatio's Garden - Kerry worked with patients in every spinal unit across the UK

     

    KIVA 

    Kerry provides loans to 5x womxn owned, creative businesses via Kiva at all times.

    This is a loan not a donation and as each loan is repaid it is reinvested in a new business. 

     

    REFUGE

    The artist makes a monthly donation to Refuge to support womxn and children experiencing domestic abuse.

     

    RNIB
