“One must be deeply aware of the impermanence of the world” – Dōgen, priest, poet and philosopher.

I am interested in investigating issues surrounding the transience of life, memory and place using a variety of media and techniques depending on what feels appropriate to each project. I often allow the meaning behind the work to be ambiguous and give the viewer the freedom to add their own interpretations and emotions.

The outcomes of my investigations range from prints, paintings and textile works to large scale installation pieces.

I recently graduated with BA (Hons) in Contemporary Creative Practice from Cornwall College, Camborne and am proud to be a recipient of the Krowji Graduate Studio Award 2018.
