"The Automaton" Photograph - Limited Edition of 50

I am a UK-based multidisciplinary artist working across painting, mixed media, and installation. My practice explores the intersections of memory, materiality, and place, examining how personal and collective histories are constructed, fragmented, and reimagined over time. Which includes the human art of masking.
I completed my Masters Degree in Illustration at Camberwell College of Arts in London, developing a research-led approach grounded in material investigation and critical reflection. This continues to inform my work supporting an ongoing engagement with contemporary cultural and social discourse.
My process is rooted in layering, erasure, and reconfiguration, creating surfaces that operate as visual palimpsests. Through this approach, I like to resist fixed narratives, offering spaces of ambiguity where meaning emerges gradually. My influence is subtle observations of landscape and environment, which I translate as lived experiences into abstract forms that evoke atmosphere rather than direct representation.
My Work has been exhibited in London, including at Medici Gallery and at The Welcome Collection in London. My work has also been featured in Reclaim Magazine, contributing to wider conversations around contemporary art and emerging practices.
My work has been described as “half dream, half reality,” often carrying a subtle dark undertone that runs through my visual language. I continue to develop my practice from my Manningtree Essex studio, exploring themes of displacement, belonging, and the shifting nature of perception.
My work invites a slower mode of looking, one that acknowledges uncertainty, material presence, and the quiet complexity of lived experience.
