Alongside creating artworks that aim to celebrate and empower individuals, including myself, I facilitate participatory art workshops for children and young people.

​

Although I do not restrict myself to a particular medium, I consider myself quite a tactile person who relishes the opportunity to work with clay or textiles whenever possible. This goes hand-in-hand with a discovered aptitude for traditional crafts, with needle work and weaving being among my favourites to engage with. However, my choice of medium is often dictated by my participants needs and desires.  These are at the heart of any workshop I deliver, and so I often find myself adopting a collaborative approach to both the planning of projects and the creation of artwork.

​

A common thread in my practice is using art as a vehicle for storytelling, which stems from my love of theatre. This influences my work greatly and often brings a sense of playfulness and whimsey to the work I make. I also strive to bring a sense of enjoyment and escapism wherever possible, and, combined with a carefully considered approach to practice, can result in an immersive and sensory experience for my workshop participants.
