    I am an artist blacksmith who has an joy and love of metal since time began people have created and to me its inspiring how one can view nature and then manoeuvre iron into a version of nature. I use mostly recycled materials and things others throw away to try and bring beauty into the things others see as rubbish to lease new life and joy into what was once unloved. I'm a lover of history.

    I work with sculpture, installation, performance, and intervention to explore time, history, the deep feelings of things, and embodied human presence. Since graduating from my MA in 2020, I have situated my work both inside and beyond the gallery setting as a means to investigate the interaction between my work, space, and site. I am a member of The Royal Society of Sculptors and Spike Island.

    My practice explores landscape as a contemporary and evolving discipline, rooted in the traditions of academic art yet driven by personal experience and emotional investigation. I approach the landscape not simply as a subject to be represented, but as a living space of memory, movement, and transformation

    I am a French‑born, London‑based textile and mixed‑media artist. My practice explores memory, heritage, and belonging through hand‑stitched sculpture, salvaged materials, and site‑responsive installations. I create works that invite reflection on the emotional and material landscapes we carry with us.

    I create art using discarded confectionery foil from treats, repurposing them to spark imagination and evoke memories. As I navigate young-onset dementia, this art offers a vital form of expression. My work explores rebirth and transformation, inviting viewers to rethink the beauty and value of second chances, both for materials and the stories we create around them.
