Biography

I was born in Salisbury, UK in 1976 and grew up in the south-west of England. Now based in London, I am an artist with an interest in the creative relationships between art and science. My practice explores ways of visualising and communicating climate change through installation, film, photography and painting.

I was awarded a MullenLowe NOVA award in July 2017 for my on-going project What Goes Around Comes Around. The project is the outcome of collaboration with the Government Office for Science in response to their 2016 annual report on waste. The project explores the relationship between consumer lifestyle in Britain and the Arctic environment, with particular focus on the impact of plastic waste. It aims to challenge audiences to question the impact of their own lifestyle choices. Central to this is an exploration of some of the ways in which art can effectively communicate scientific / environmental issues without being didactic or overly moralistic.

I am a graduate of the MA Art and Science degree programme at Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts, London (2017). I also hold an MSc in Multimedia Application Development from Middlesex University (2003) and a BA (Hons) in Art and Design from Central Saint Martins (2000).
