β€˜An artist is a person with talent and the skills to conceptualize and make creative works, often sought out for their skills and original ideas.’


The desire to relate authentically with other humans is why I continue to engage in reflexive praxis as a professional artist. My repertoire is diverse, subject matter contentious, as I challenge taboos, breaking things in collaboration with colleagues, employing interdisciplinary skillsets, a range of mediums and formats. I am my harshest critic.
