As a curator I am driven by a desire to create new dialogues between artists and art works. My projects are context specific and often concieved in response to a particular site, location or community.

Since 2014 I have had a collaborative curatorial practice with Rosie Allen, our projects organisation is Field Notes CIC. Our mission is to support both emerging and established artists to develop cutting-edge practices linked to local communities and wider cultural contexts.
As an artist my work deals with the psychological possession of geographical space, responding to the layers of human meaning and integral histories of sites. Examining history in a non-linear fashion my work urges the viewer to consider the past as a continuum in which concepts recur.
