About Me
I am a 2024 graduate of Edinburgh College of Art, studying on the MA Fine Art program. Before this, I studied an art foundation diploma at Arts University Bournemouth. I currently work in community engagement at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh.
My practice uses painting, drawing and sculpture to explore care, collectivity, circularity, and uncertainty as characteristics of creative practice. I am interested in the ways that these characteristics can create an alternative approach to environment. I often use reclaimed discarded materials, offering an alternative approach that is grounded in reclamation and exchange.
Through my work, I document issues impacting contemporary landscapes. Recently I have been particularly interested in reimagining map-making using the processes of abstract painting. I also use landscape to reflect on emotional healing, care and conflict, with a particular focus on reclaimed urban wildernesses and coastal communities.
