I work across the mediums of photography, video, ceramics, drawing and poetry. My art explores themes such as relationships, gender, sexuality, social interactions, childhood trauma, neurodiversity, memory and emotion. Even when exploring difficult themes and emotions I intend for my works to maintain a light hearted and playful feel. I’m interested in creating works that promote kindness and evoke feelings of openness, vulnerability and an urge for connection in the viewer.
