I am a Loughborough University Fine Art graduate. My practice specialises in photography, particularly analogue processes. I am growing in confidence as a photographer, using both digital-photoshop and traditional methods. I have recently set up my own dark room at home pursue this field further. Studying fine art has nurtured my creative personality and helped to develop my social, organisational and curatorial skills.
I am currently working part time at Curious Rose Ltd as a marketing assistant. My responsibilities include running the social media accounts and helping to prepare content. I also help with photo shoots and product photography.
I want to gain some experience, continue to network and engage in the creative business world to help me pursue my creative industry career goals.
Projects
- 2020 Loughborough Degree Show Final Project: The Distortion of AnxietyThis video summarises my final year of my Fine At Degree, detailing my project that surrounds the key themes of memory, nostalgia and autobiographical documentation. My practice is heavily photography based, using dark room analogue processes and distortive techniques to address feelings of anxiety. This is accompanied by daily drawings that I use to record my everyday thoughts, feelings and emotions.
