Interdisciplinary Storyteller

Location:

North West

ABOUT:

I'm an interdisciplinary storyteller and emerging artist based across the North West. Using a blend of text, tech and animation I explore my lived experience of sexuality, mental illness and racial injustice. Reaching across disciplines to discover ways of creating contemporary folklore and fairy tale, with a keen interest in projection and its relationship to performance. Self-taught animator and long-time fan of all things spoken word, I draw from community-centred practices to breathe life into autoethnographic poetry.

WORKS:

SUPPORT WORKING CLASS CREATIVES (1).png

'Working Class Creatives' responds to a need which is too often overlooked in the arts; that of the barriers facing working-class artists from getting on in our sector. They are instrumental in initiating much-needed change that will see the art world become more inclusive and reflect the society it purports to serve. I often search their database in my research, it is a vital resource for any arts professional working in culture today. That they have got this far on so little financial resource is remarkable and I am excited to see what they will achieve with further support.” Beth Hughes, Curator, Arts Council Collection.
