Biography

I teach Sculpture in the Fine Art Curriculum area of the Foundation course at Central Saint Martins.

My sculptures and installations have been exhibited widely, including shows at the Economist Plaza, Guest Projects, Jerwood Space, Ambika P3, Pumphouse Gallery, Art Rotterdam, Art Brussels and the South London Gallery. My practice emphasises material investigation and experimental processes and is inspired by science fiction literature and film, architecture and the urban experience. I consider art and sci-fi to share the fundamental purpose of exploration and the ability to reflect upon contemporary societal concerns by envisioning potential realities. I graduated from the Slade in 2004 with an MFA (Distinction) in Fine Art Sculpture.
