About me
I am a Curator and workshop facilitator with a creative history in production and photography. I have my own practice as an Image maker but I am currently working my collective practice and facilitation through curating brilliant shows with emerging/local artists and hosting creative spaces.
Would love to grow and connect in all directions~

- Guvna B 'Battle' (2020) Dir. CHRISTINA NWABUGO @BynwabugoBritish Artist Guvna B released a new track entitled 'Battle' 31.1.20 in which I play the main model within the video~ the song expresses Guvna's take on hardship, growth and the rising above all while cleverly remixing Garage DJ/Music producer, Wookie's original track by the same title.
- I am my own Sun, Moon and Stars“I am my own Sun, Moon and Stars” is a body of work stemming from a dream I had during my self discovery and spiritual growth journey. The idea is that I am just as strong, just as beautiful and awe inspiring as the celestial beings that rule us. In the writing that accompanies the piece I discuss my mental health, religious transitions and true freedom. SMS is a love letter to whom I've become, where I finally am and the grand human experience.

Education
BA Photography
- London, United Kingdom
I studied BA Photography at UAL in which I created a plethora of projects primarily based around experimentation with film and process and conceptual visual pieces. I partook in collaborative projects within the course and with the wider community not just growing our creative skills but our communication skills also. I was selected by my course leaders to be presented in Tate Moderns Offprint 2017 event for a photography book I created and bound myself.
