ABOUT:

"My practice is primarily concerned with with exploring social class through absurdism and caricature. I use character to personify ideas and perceptions that are often obscured by educational elitism, in an attempt to make them more latent and tangible. I hope to create a visual language that can be easily accessed by anyone, regardless of their background and exposure to the art world. Also, in an attempt to disrupt artistic sensibility and the notions of what 'high art' can be, I try to invert esoteric values with irony and satire. "

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.
