Research-led, Multidisciplinary Artist

Dudley, West Midlands
ABOUT:
I am a multidisciplinary artist working across analogue photography, camera obscura processes, projection, print, moving image, and installation. My work explores mediated vision: the ways seeing is shaped, delayed, inverted, reflected, and made strange through light, surface, and time. Through analogue and process-led methods, I work with slowness, distortion, and uncertainty, allowing the image to emerge as something unpredictable and uncertain. Lenses, shadows, mirrors, and projections are my ways of thinking as much as ways of making.
My practice is rooted in research and often informed by philosophy, art history, and historical optical forms. I use my research as a tool to test how images can hold tension, clarity and obscurity, in particular the fluctuating relationship between the seer and the seen. Across all of this, I am interested in the image as an event, as something that is unfolding through time, shaped by perception, and never entirely still.
