Discipline:

Multidisciplinary Artist, printmaker

Location:

London

ABOUT:

My multidisciplinary works comprise of videos, photographs, performances, sound recordings, installations, textile work, and more.

My work takes a critical view of social, political and cultural issues including gender, feminism and working-class conditions. Often referencing personal memories, experiences and trauma, it explores the varying relationships between popular culture, lived experiences, and the female condition.

My practice is also oriented towards performance art. This medium represents an important part, using and staging her own body in public, collective, and solo confrontations of the representation of women’s bodies.

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.
