I use drawing, collected items, knitting, crochet, sewing and screen-printing, making connections and relationships with materials through vivid colours, layering textures, patterns and imagery to make tangible and aesthetic pieces. I work across scale from small pieces to be worn, to larger installations to create an environment exploring thoughts and emotions, and sometimes I make fun things just for the love of it.
Studied at Winchester School of Art and Kawashima School of Textiles in Kyoto. After graduating I continued exploring throughout South East Asia, Australia and India with just sketchbooks to hand. Back in Oxford for a few years, making on a small scale with crochet whilst sitting in the corner of Modern Art Oxford. Now in East London, I’m further developing my craft making. I have worked as a technician to sew, mend, upholster and install textiles and props on various art projects and venues including the Hayward Gallery, Southbank Centre, The Knitting & Stitching Shows, and the Museum of Domestic Design and Architecture. My involvement with collaborative craft projects has led to me running knitting and crochet groups for adults and children.
