As technology moves forward at an ever daunting and perplexing speed it seems that many find it invasive to the extent that it causes great anxiety and leads to a disengagement from its advantages. It is this background that informs my work. Working across a range of media, I mix natural elements with the machine made to create hybrids that have a dialog between the new and the obsolete, the automated and the intuitive and the organic and systematic in order to understand technology, to offer inspiration for its mediation and to find a balance between it and nature.

I recently graduated from the royal college of art, previously studied at central saint martins and am Currently a fellow of Virginia Commonwealth University, USA, a post that involves working as a university lecturer and artist in residence.
