Statement


I am an interdisciplinary artist working with drawing, video, painting and multimedia. My subject matter often explores the construction of identity through visual culture the emulation of icons and obsessions.

My most recent work has been studying the stars of the 1900s Music Hall. As well as merging images from popular culture and everyday life with images from fairytales and folklore. Bringing together the old and new with themes of fitting in and finding your place in the world.
