About me
I am a multi media artist based in South Wales. I specialise in community led projects that look at generating wellbeing through creativity. I’ve been working in this area since 2005 being involved with events in Bristol’s underground music scene, using squats as community hubs, running workshops at a wide range of UK festivals and achieved a degree in Creative and Therapeutic Arts from the University of South Wales. I have also studied in the building trades and I am a qualified plumber and experienced carpenter. Other creative fields I enjoy are screen printing and print making, sculpture, street art, textiles, green crafts and restoration.
Currently I am the artist in residence working on the Ebenezer chapel in Tonypandy, I am restoring the school rooms and main chapel area back into a usable state whilst running community workshops in graffiti, printing and green crafts.
I also love building skate ramps and teaching people to skate🔥🤙🏼.
