I’m a multi-disciplinary artist, exploring changing notions of what it means to be ‘present’, and the impact technology is having on our sense of ‘self.’ In an age of asynchronous, online engagement, what does it mean to experience something happening in real time?
Throughout my practice I apply a broad range of mediums, including moving image, installation, sound, text, and live performance. I often work collaboratively with artists, performers, and audiences in both the development and realisation of my work.
In 2016, I was awarded the Main Prize at the Nottingham Castle Open for ‘Wasted Labour’, a collaborative work with artist Martin Lewis.
Exhibitions include Offline Is The New Luxury, Furtherfield (Solo - London, 2017), Eyecatcher III, Focal Point Gallery (Southend, 2018), Narrating The Barbican/Hack The Barbican, Barbican (London, 2013), Live Friday, Ashmolean Museum (Oxford, 2017), Wonderlab, Science Museum (London, 2016), Netpark, Metal (Southend, 2016), and I’m Ten, IMT (London, 2015).
Alongside my practice, I’m an Artists’ Coach, helping artists overcome challenges in developing their practice, overcoming artists’ block, reaching audiences, and applying for/creating opportunities. I have over 15 years’ experience as a University Lecture and speaker in Fine Art and Moving Image at a range of institutions including Goldsmiths, London Metropolitan University, De Montfort University, Westminster University, Nottingham Trent University and TOMA (The Other MA - Alt ed.)
