My practice is based on storytelling, seeking to challenge perceptions, which have shaped the experience of being a woman today. I work across a range of artforms, including film, video art, collage art, interactive experiences, and installation.

During my 15 year practice, I aim to create exciting stories, based in playful and vibrant worlds that seek to challenge historical and contemporary perceptions, which have shaped the experiences of being a woman today. I strive to connect, inspire and empower women of all ages, and invite them on a shared journey of discovery and reflection that highlights female power, raises aspirations and builds self-esteem.

I am committed to pushing the boundaries of my practice; embracing new platforms, such as immersive, performance and installation art; combining new digital techniques and analogue materials; and challenging the status quo, to confront our beliefs of what it is to be human.

My projects have been showcased at The Courtauld Institute of Art, the Montreal International Film Festival and The Sphinx Fine Art Gallery. My film I Can See You was awarded Best Original Concept by the Jane Austen International Film Festival and received two honourable mentions. I work with creative and culture partners on a variety of public commissions, including National Trust, Wellcome Collection and Ipswich Museums, and have resided as an artist in residence at North Lincolnshire Museum and Normanby Hall.

Currently, I am an artist-in-residence at the Time and Tide Museum in Great Yarmouth, creating the surreal film, Gold Drunk, inspired by the British Empire, cabinets of curiosity and museum acquisitions, responding to their theme Not Made in Great Yarmouth.

I also lecture at Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge on the BA (Hons) Digital Media Production course.
