‘Vulnerability is the crucible of creativity’*

My practice explores the tension between strength and fragility through non-figurative, three-dimensional forms that evoke the human body. Working between sculpture and painting I am drawn to the body not as a literal subject, but as a vessel of vulnerability—something beautiful, resilient, and exposed. My work emerges as a direct response to my own experience of living with a chronic illness.

Using a process unique to my practice, I work with distemper-impregnated paper that is waxed and stitched, creating forms that appear both durable and delicate. These materials allow me to explore surface, skin, and structure in ways that echo the physical and emotional landscape of the body. The act of stitching in particular serves as a metaphor for care, trauma, and repair. 

My intention is to invite viewers into a quiet, intimate space where they can consider the body beyond its physical presence—where vulnerability becomes a source of reflection rather than weakness. 

Based in London, I completed an MA in Fine Art (Painting) at Camberwell College of Arts, UAL, in 2020, following an extensive career in museum design at the British Museum and Natural History Museum.
