Explorer of female stories of resilience 〰️

About me

I am a conceptual artist working broadly in the areas of sculpture, installation, collage and stitch. I work with found ephemera, words and natural finds from my therapeutic walking, to explore female stories of resilience. I expose the darker sides of life, blurring the semi-autobiographical with fiction to highlight the precariousness of being human, to start intergenerational dialogues about silent happenings, such as terminal illness, infertility, grief, dementia, caregiving & hearing loss, from a female perspective.

Research and the ritualistic process of making are fundamental to my work; often exploring historic and scientific documents, found letters and books , whilst allowing ideas to invade and evolve.

I work from my studio on the south coast of England with frequent walks to the woods or the beach to clear my head.
