Biography

I am a multi-disciplinary artist, spatial designer, academic and the other half of Wet-Hard Agency: a research and design practice that sits in the intersection of queerness, architecture and the internet.

I currently teach architecture at Central Saint Martins, at BA and MA level, where I insert performance and radical making into spatial practice. My own research revolves around memorialising and celebrating LGBTQ+ spaces that have disappeared from the built environment due to gentrification and the rise of online dating apps.

I have exhibited at Roca London gallery, Grade I listed Strawbery Hill House, the Venice Architecture Biennale, and Feldfunf gallery in Berlin. I am a is a Graham foundation ‘New Media’ grantee (2021-2023) alongside Dr Regner Ramos, for our project 'Coloso: A factory of queer, digital monuments for Puerto Rico'.

My work has been published in outlets such as The Creative Review and Theatrum Mundi.
