about

I was brought up in a mining valley in South Wales and am now based in Bristol.  

Using practice-led research and an embodied, multidisciplinary practice, I explore the liminal space I occupy today as a mother without children. Connecting my body with the already meaningful materials of the landscape – earth, coal and stone – has provided ways to explore grief and maternal narratives, and the role of culture in placemaking and identity.

I follow sprawling connections between land and body, across feminist practices, somatics and personal mythology through a practice that includes sculpture, installation, drawing, painting, video, writing and collaboration with other artists.

I’m actively engaged in creating opportunities for artists to work together in Bristol. In 2016 I launched The Unit, a temporary gallery project within the St James Arcade, Bristol.  Realising this as an important part of my practice, I set up The Garage (2019), exchanging that for The Launderette in 2023 –  a residency and project space based in inner city Stokes Croft, Bristol.
