Hello and welcome to my website.


I am a visual artist based in London. My creative practice is both personal and confessional, as a way to unburden myself and explore my experiences of grief, pain, healing, caring and human connection. My ideas evolve rapidly, moving through a wide range of curiosities, but ultimately, creating is a place where I can lose myself and bare my soul.

I am at my happiest outdoors, immersed in the elements, always drawn to the grounding sensory experience of making in nature. Working in this environment is restorative – it helps to regulate my nervous system and connects me to my primal self.

Play is central to my process. I work with materials such as inks and watercolours that invite a sense of unpredictability, choosing to let them lead. Often working on multiple pieces at once, I move quickly and instinctively, frequently incorporating words or poems into the artworks. What emerges in the works is raw, honest, and unfiltered.
