I am primarily a performance and installation artist but also work within sculpture, painting video and sound.
I look at the body’s relation to the world through senses and the basic functions of our bodies, the ability to feel weight on us, move, breathe, create with our bodies such as water from our breath.
Otherness and marginalisation underpins my creative practice using fantasy and transformation to explore neurodiversity and queer identity, currently through researching the queering of sea life and considering the ocean as a safe space for marginalised people.
The spaces I create for myself in the installations, other me as the performer, hide me away, put me in a box or a machine.
I focus on precision and plastics, latex, and water in my practice which create a scientific or medical aesthetic thread that runs through my work. My practice evolves through direct contact with the materials and the thoughts they evoke through touch.
This philosophical and aesthetic approach is highly informed by both magical realism’s ability to create worlds that just slightly differ from our own, as well as the ersatz reality of the PC music movement.
