I am a UK based artist, curator and educator.
My art practice explores the conceptual frameworks we invent to give our lives a sense of order and what happens when these slip.
I use sculpture, site specific installations and performance to investigate the body. I am concerned with the relationship between empathy and consumable commodity in both animals and humans. And, I explore the ways in which we can simultaneously understand the body as both subject and object.
