About
My style
I am a very deliberate artist. I enjoy order and clarity.
I have adopted a scientific approach in style and content, coupled with carefully considered imagery.
Outdated literature and obsolete methods are something I incline towards. I'm fascinated with language, history and social science. For this reason I frequently find myself taking inspiration from very old books and found text in medical papers.
My work highlights these interests.
​
Given my enthusiasm of the obsolete I generally work on a typewriter, frequently making 2d works as well as conceptual artist books.
My style is scientific, graphic, neat and research/fact based.
I work to briefs, commissioned or self-imposed. My work is adaptable and flexible depending on context and content.
My practice and inspirations
As a conceptual artist working in themes relating to time and personal experience, some recent inspirations include:
Journeys
Health and well-being and
Perspectives of personal experience.
Recent catalysts for concepts include:
Motherhood
Conception and Pregnancy
Alterations in mental health
Age and the ageing process
Self acceptance and themes relating to celebrating...
Positive body image.
I am very interested in personal perception, and using optical illusions and language play to form narratives. I like to make playful yet profound pieces of work to make light of aspects of the human condition.
