​Welcome to my website
Over a number of years I have established a studio practice in which I use everyday, domestic materials to make psychological landscapes.  

Working in photographic & mixed media paintings I’m interested in the shift of perception found between microcosm and macrocosm, the near and far. I often use close up techniques that use scale to invite considerations around distance and desire. These are quieter, inclusive works that invite emotional involvement, asking us to engage perhaps with something happening in front of us in the images in the here-and-now.  

I am interesting in making art works about inviting engagement with how we cope in our day-to-day lives and with our increasingly globalised, interconnected and warming world.  As well as art objects I make  participatory works that often gently subvert conventions of the landscape.  The work is informed by my parallel psychology career where I work with assessments that measure risk and resilience in attachment relationships through naming of emotions and a spatial proximity to those who can help us under stress. ​
