​

I am an artist and filmmaker based in London and I use textiles to explore identity and shared histories in relation to place. Through choreographed costumed performance, video and installation I explore themes of identity, community and conflict using motifs sourced from folklore, art-history and popular culture which are then re-contextualized to expose hidden narratives and create new ones. Research is undertaken through engagement with specific communities and contexts and I have extensive experience of working within a diverse range of communities and environments. These include: a community drop in centre for homeless and vulnerably housed men and women, a living military history group and Napoleonic fort, a group of heritage motorcyclists and an iconic 'bikers' cafe, a Roman Catholic priest, his church and vestments, invasive species and pollution within a wetlands environment, the social history surrounding a past owner of a National Trust Country Estate and Post Traumatic Stress disorder on the former site of a  WW1 military hospital.  

I have also assisted with several Heritage Lottery Funded projects as a costume maker and oral history collector. 

I gained an MA Fine Art (2013) and BA (Hons) Time-Based Media (2011) at Wimbledon College Of Arts, London. I have twice worked with the arts organisation Unravelled, having received commissions to create work for Wetlands Unravelled (2021) and Unravelling The Vyne (2013). Conference screenings include Digital/Material: developments in printed and woven textiles (2017) and The Erotic Cloth Colloquium (2015) for The University For The Creative Arts.
