About ARTIST

HELLO!

I’m a multidisciplinary artist with a background working in film visual effects. I was brought up in St Albans and Basingstoke, UK. I studied Fine Art & Art History at Goldsmiths graduating in 2001, then lived for a while in Australia working in the film industry, and came back to the UK and art later completing a Masters in Fine Art with Distinction at Wimbledon School of Art in 2011.

I work in lots of mediums - animation, film, painting, drawing, various print-forms and photography. I find play and humour important in my work as in my life. I am a quiet environmentalist and try to do my bit often picking up waste and sometimes repurposing it into new work. I’m a film geek & love going to galleries. But as I mellow, I’m often found walking the dog, cycling around, reading in my local cafe and am partial to a bit of camping. I live with my son and our dog in London.
