Usually, he collaborates with professional and non-professional performers, working with their diverse experiences of life, to build a social sculpture founded on risk, complexity and new empathy. In 2020, Craig graduated in Contemporary Performance Practice from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. In 2021, he was awarded the Jerwood Arts Live Work Fund, and he has recently been supported by Battersea Arts Centre, British Council, La Teatrería and National Theatre of Scotland.
