My art practice is a playful response to the constraints of society, institutions and authority. I create interventions, displacements and disruptions in a variety of media including performance. My work is frequently inspired by my love of language, is often discursive and usually collaborative. I enjoy the synergy of creating work with others.

I graduated from Central Saint Martins with a BA(Hons) in Fine Art.

I recently trained as an Arts Award Adviser (Bronze, Silver) and I am a regular guest artist in local primary schools, running workshops and large-scale projects to engage and inspire the children's creativity.
