Artist Statement

I am a visual artist working in collaboration with expansive landscapes and dark skies, charting the seasonal shifts through performative interplays with paper and expanded print. Living and working from remote places has offered opportunities to observe the ways in which time behaves, a chance to reflect on our place in the cosmos, inspiring a dialogue with the temporal and transient nature of our impermanence.

A graduate of London College of Printing I was awarded a one-year residency with Visual Arts in Rural Communities in rural Northumberland, where I am still currently based. I have attended residencies in Italy, Iceland and the US, spending significant time working and studying in Japan. Recently elected as an Associate member of the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers, my works are held in public and private collections including Tate Britain, The Ashmolean Museum and Yale Centre for British Art. My prints have been presented at The Kentler International Drawing Space New York, 3331 Arts Chiyoda Tokyo and The Royal Academy Summer Exhibition London.. In 2021 I was awarded a Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust grant to develop my practice and was the winner of the Flourish Award for excellence in printmaking in 2020.

I am part of the Mokuhanga Sisters collective, an international collaborative group formed of nine artists across four continents, exploring contemporary mokuhanga techniques and exhibiting together globally. A selection of my prints can be viewed at Bankside Gallery, London and Kentler International Drawing Space Gallery,New York.
