ABOUT

I’m a multidisciplinary artist, designer, educator, horticulturalist, curator, and creative producer with over 14 years’ experience working across the creative industries, public art, community engagement, and the creative economy.
​
I lead co-designed public art projects, creative workshops, and community activations that transform underutilised spaces into vibrant places. My work spans local, national, and international contexts, using exhibitions, installations, and commissions to connect people with place. I see public space as a canvas for storytelling; weaving together community voices, cultural narratives, and local ecologies. My practice bridges traditional art and craft with contemporary digital forms to tell stories of resilience, transformation, and belonging.
​
My visual arts practice spans printmaking, papermaking, ceramics, textiles, photography, digital design, and working with plants, found objects, and natural materials. Rooted in themes of place, community, craft, and ecology, I explore the layered relationships between people, land, and the built environment.
I have undertaken creative residencies in Japan, Mexico, and the U.S., including an internship at Dieu Donné in New York, which deepened my passion for handmade paper and plant-based materials.
​
With additional training in horticulture, I bring ecological thinking and environmental awareness into every aspect of my work. I’m passionate about the intersection of art and wellbeing, informed by both professional practice and lived experience. I understand the role creativity and nature can play in fostering mental health, social connection, and environmental engagement.
​
I also offer visual communication services including: graphic design, illustration, and digital imaging, creating thoughtful, values-led visuals for people and organisations doing good in the world.
