A recent graduate in the History of Art from the Courtauld Institute of Art. I have professional experience in direct sales and marketing, as well as events planning and running workshops.

Work history
Sales Associate
Freelance
When Polaroid announced the end of instant film in 2008, Impossible Project stepped in by buying the last remaining factory, days before it closed down. In 2014 the company opened its first store in London, where I was selected to launch the brand to the UK market. My responsibilities include serving customers, process purchases, and organise workshops and events where I teach customers how to use Polaroid cameras and the various techniques to develop instant film.

BA dissertation title: “Francis Bacon and the Amorphous body”. The thesis treated a contextual and formalistic analysis of Bacon’s triptych May June 1973 using Deleuze’s “The Logic of Sensation” as a starting point in the unpacking of the artist’s twisted aesthetics.
