I'm a filmmaker working and residing in London, UK. I independently develop, produce and post-produce CG films and have exhibited extensively nationally and internationally at galleries including The Royal Standard (Liverpool), SEAGER (London), The Collection (Lincoln) and BACKLIT (Nottingham). I have delivered workshops in video production and animation techniques, lectured at an undergraduate level, and have presented my research publicly during lectures, symposiums and artist talks.
Currently, I am studying with the School of the Damned (SotD), an alternative and nomadic arts and educational platform. Re-forming on an annual basis, each cohort has the opportunity to define the agenda and produce work and events individually and collectively. SotD was formed in 2014 as a reaction to the increasing financialisation of Higher Education in the UK. SotD has no tuition fees, is student led and peer supported. We use our collective resources and networks to make the things we want to happen, happen.
I now work at DMS as a motion graphics designer. I create localisations of film trailers, bumpers, social spots and other promotional content for the campaigns of major blockbuster releases for high profile clients including Warner Brothers, Sony and Fox.
I have excellent working knowledge of After Effects and Blender, and a strong understanding of Premiere Pro, Photoshop, Media Encoder and Cinema 4D.

He is met with the glacial heads of familiar mountains, the ruins of his construction in which he now seeks solace. Scattered are the tools of his mass-production; automated, robotic arms that stand rusted yet resilient to time. The phallic monuments are vast in number and rupture the untouched snowfall. Although relics of a bygone era, they continue to haunt him. As he reaches the summit, he is transforme
- Other LifeOther Life combines an ultra-futuristic, sterile and vacuous aesthetic with undercurrents of homoerotic tension. The song’s yearning mood resonated with me, provoking the construction of a digital environment in which the boundaries of my lived identity become more fluid; a technological utopia with an unstable core. The viewer is guided into a central chamber that visually references gay bathhouses, cathedrals, and the backrooms of queer venues; sites that share a heightened, otherworldly and
- Beyond the Water's EdgeIn Beyond the Water’s Edge, a newly synthesised body awakens within an endless ocean; a reference to the womb, but also a symbol from art history of the unconscious mind. The poreless sheen of the body’s sculpted surface holds a metallic edge; the perfect sterility. Employing computer animation, permits me to construct these fantasies; controlled environments that act as safe spaces in exploring my bodily desires. This is a space in which I hold absolute control over the body; from its wireframe
