My practice emanates a visualisation of the chaotic mind through the themes of performance and installation. The use of delicate materials and repetitive motions take a metaphorical stance on the fragility and vulnerability of mental wellbeing whilst also celebrating the strength of the individual.

Brought up in Blackburn, Lancashire, I now reside in Wakefield after graduating with a BA in Fine Art. My journey into further education was unconventional due to lengthy stays in hospital due to ill mental health in my teens and early 20s. Becoming more and more institutionalised, art and poetry became my only form of expression. By engaging in this innate creativity, art became a cathartic tool for recovery and a means of communication with family and friends.
