My artistic practice is an attentive exploration of the treasures found in science and nature. I’m intrigued by weave and weft, colour and shapes that often go unnoticed in the world around us. My practice uses a wide range of mediums including textiles, digital technology and recycled materials to record my observations. I experiment with digital media, photo, moving-image, fabrics, pen and pencil to recreate the qualitative elements and synthetic representation of my everyday environment.
I exhibit my art work across the North West of England. I have been an Associate Artist with Cross Street Arts since 2016 and with WiganSTEAM since 2020. I have an interest in Art History and graduated with a BA Honours degree in Art History in 2014.
In 2018, I successfully completed the coordination of the D:Circus Digital Art Project; a two-year programme funded by Arts Council England and Wigan Council, working with Wigan Libraries and Museums to deliver high quality digital art. I founded Artist Discuss in 2018, a peer support initiative for artists of all creative background and deliver this on a voluntary basis and in fellowship with TERM Art Classes.
