In a fast-paced world where we are all constantly on the go, with barely enough time to stop and think, we overlook things, miss things and things go unnoticed. It is now more important than ever to give ourselves spaces to pause and time to breathe.



My work exists to counteract the hyper-saturated world of metaphorical noise that we experience through our daily lives. I create large-scale site-specific installations using materials we are all inherently familiar with; my immersive pieces invite viewers to consciously experience their being within space, creating meditative paths in which to pause and reflect.



I believe in the importance of people creating their own self-guided experiences and so aim to facilitate this by allowing my work to be open to the viewer’s own curiosities. Recently I have been exploring notions of space and confines in my work, and collaborations with Artists using different media have guided my practice towards a more inquisitive way of working by using new media like sound and film.
