About me
My professional work to date includes book cover design and freelancing as a graphic designer and set designer. Personal work consists of art direction, image making, set design, graphic design and working with 3D forms and photography to explore common themes in my work which include film, fiction, psychology, surrealism and often myself.
Projects
  • Red Frames
    Red FramesAn experimental series looking into constructing shifts in reality through photography. Created by projecting images into a similar environment to the originals and continually repeating the process to distort and confuse the image of the new space. 2016
  • Mother & The Manufacture of Anxiety
    Mother & The Manufacture of AnxietyMother and the Manufacture of Anxiety has been a form of exploration and expression of myself through making. The work addresses my experience of anxiety  both as a person and practitioner, and how my relationship with my mother feeds into that.       This work was created by taking my feelings of anxiety and creating objects from those emotions to examine it further. The steel frames act as my body and the latex represents the push and pull of anxiety and all the different ways it manifests itself in me. The MOTHER hook is this positive presence that pulls me back up and counter – balances all these smaller hooks. “My works are portraits of a relationship, and the most important one was my mother. Now, how these feelings for her are brought into my interaction with other people, and how these feelings for her feed into my work is both complex and mysterious. I'm still trying to understand the mechanism.”       -Louise Bourgeois 2016
