At its core, my practice explores relationships between women - of lives lived, lessons learned, collective strength held. 

Painting in oil, I reflect on emotional nuance and what lies beneath the surface of the everyday. Paintings reveal quiet feminine strength, tenderness, shared values and solidarity: expressed through community and understated resistance.

The figures I paint exist in a space: between stillness and becoming, care and rebellion. They are vessels of compassion, joy, and vulnerability, operating as projections of the self, shaped through collective and personal memory.

Rooted in an archival mindset with a reverence for drawing, my work seeks a balance between stillness and fluidity. A subtle sense of disquiet often runs through the work, a quiet liberation that offers both an entry and an exit point, for viewer and artist alike.

Influenced by feminist thought and writers such as Rosalind Galt & James Baldwin, I see painting as a form of quiet resistance. Through painting I investigate how care, beauty, and stillness can challenge hierarchies that dismiss the decorative, the emotional, or the feminine as superficial. My work aims to situate painting as a space for complexity rather than resolution, where shared vulnerability becomes a means of rebalancing narratives around strength, solidarity, and agency.

I tend to view figures as a collection of abstract shapes, reducing the scene to a series of colours and emotions.

Currently completing an MA in Painting at the Royal College of Art. I have held three solo exhibitions and participated in over ninety exhibitions internationally, including in the USA, France, Germany, and Japan. I was a judge at the Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair and was voted Printmakers’ Printer. I have mentored with the Koestler Trust.

I began drawing in 2017, following a previous career. My training has included the Ruskin School of Art, Central Saint Martins, Wimbledon College of Arts, and Turps Art School, shaping a practice grounded in material sensitivity, figuration, and lived experience”
