About me

Visual artist/designer based in Manchester working across mediums to create unexpected visual perceptions. My practice is centred around image and object making, by means of photography, drawing and installation, working in a mostly analogous way, blending strategies of creating artwork that considers the numerous platforms and spaces that we exist in, including the virtual, the imaginary and the atmospheric. My work often surrounds the idea of ambiguity, in that it suggests and hints to a number of themes and ideas and often has in common a consideration of space, light, form and colour. Abstract/figurative/in/tangible structures; creating pieces that are two dimensional, three dimensional or experiential, which can be transformed by light space and environment. Analogue/digital/experiments; my work often seems transitional in a way that my work exists somewhere between drawing, imagery and sculpture; sharing the ambiguity with that of our changing relationship to spaces and places...
