Tamsin Calidas is an Anglo Indian writer and photographer living in the wilds of the Scottish Hebrides. She worked in London before giving it all up in 2004 to move to a tiny, remote island in Scotland to run a derelict croft with sheep and horses. A beekeeper, keen cold water swimmer, and highly skilled nature medicine and alternative health practitioner, Tamsin is known for her rehabilitation and rewilding efforts, and has initiated a conservation project to reintroduce and breed rare Scottish black bees. Her art work is sensory and immersive, exploring landscape, psyche and conscious animism. She studied English Language and Literature at Oxford University, specialising in Jungian Psychology and Celtic, Norse and Icelandic nature folklore. Her ground-breaking non-fiction debut I Am An Island, a Sunday Times and International Bestseller, was published by Doubleday in 2020 to worldwide acclaim. Her second non-fiction memoir will be published in Spring 2023. A special limited edition, hand-stitched and hand-bound book of photography and words called A Wilder Voice is published by Hanbury Press - available from 1 December 2021. She is also as a main contributor, featured in The Mindful Photographer by Sophie Howarth, former curator at Tate Modern, published by Thames & Hudson - available Spring 2022. Represented by Caroline Michel at Peter Fraser Dunlop.
