About me

My curatorial journey began with hosting house parties. Each room was carefully crafted: a lineup of DJs and local bands headlining on my kitchen counter, queues flooding down the pavement to get in. Every space in the house was designed differently, embracing a multiplicity of perspectives. I curated a home where people could become fully themselves where everyone was equal, and in that equality, everyone was free. This pursuit of freedom continues throughout all of my work.

Whether through image-making or exhibitions, my practice is anchored in semiotics. Everything I create is designed to resonate with the subconscious, to unarchive the personal and the collective memory.

I actively work to amplify, and collaborate the voices of those that reside in the north of england. I offer consultancy to emerging image-makers, supporting them in navigating their practise and building visibility.

Informed by my artistic practise , I am a photography lecturer, workshop facilitator, and mentor.

My work has been exhibited at Factory International, Paris Photo Off, and the National Portrait Gallery as part of the Taylor Wessing Photographic Portrait Prize. It has been featured in The Guardian, Dazed, The Standard, and Hero Magazine, as well as in an Instagram takeover for The Photographers’ Gallery. I am a Refocus Prize recipient, LensCulture Portrait Award finalist, and have received endorsement from the Prince and Princess of Wales through World Photography Day.
