My work
I am a multi-disciplinary figurative artist interested in interior emotional and psychological states. My work explores the themes of haunting, loss and the power of the relic through print, paint, photography, plaster, clay, metal, paper and fabric.
I have exhibited nationally and internationally, and was awarded the G.F. Smith Prize in 2024 at the Festival of Print.
Recently I have completed a year-long residency on innovative modes of exhibition - a collaboration between City and Guilds of London Art School, The University of the Arts in London, and OCAD University, Canada. This culminated in shows in Toronto and London, in April and May of this year.
Currently, I am working on an archive project with Bethlem Museum of the Mind in the UK.
