About me
I use traditional craft and automatic drawing techniques to create pieces of art inspired by nature, local folklore, feminine identity and shared experience. I am 1/3 of Manchester based female art collective In The Flesh, where we coordinate art and music exhibitions- showcasing emerging local artists and creating accessible, interactive events whilst encouraging the audience to actively participate. I’ve recently finished an art residency at Hebden Bridge Hostel, working within the realms of arts charity events, workshop facilitation and experimenting with using craft to enhance mental wellbeing. Aspiring Art Therapist.
