My work is concerned with the human condition, and our innate fear of mortality. While this has been a feature of many cultures since time immemorial, the current state of the world and the impending emergencies faced by the planet and its inhabitants perhaps create a greater feeling of anxiety, casting a greater shadow over humanity than ever before. I focus this into experimental unsettling landscapes, sculptures or installations, onto which I project a human based psychological mood of disquiet- a sense that our lives are precarious and anything could happen.
My work very often starts with a photograph, taken when an atmosphere, or even a texture, catches my attention. This could be anything from a bleak landscape, a long abandoned building, even a rotting lemon found at the back of my fridge.
I graduated from Bath Spa University in 2023 with a First Class Honours Degree in Contemporary Art and Professional Studies, and have taken part in numerous group exhibitions since, as well as being accepted for the RWA 170 Open Exhibition.
