I am an interdisciplinary research based artist, my relationship with art has always been one of limitless possibilities that has introduced me to the most amazing people and communities who have shared their incredible life stories and experiences with me.

Currently I have been working on a new body of work called ‘Hollywood’ which has been inspired by a Welsh journalist and broadcaster whose career has spanned over forty years, who is now living with dementia. I have recorded their oral history which has been incredible and a privilege to listen to and archive.

I am also an Associate Artist at The Glynn Vivian Art Gallery in Swansea, South Wales. My role is to focused on disability arts. To increase more opportunities for people with disabilities to express themselves creatively in an inclusive arts practice. And create new opportunities for people with disabilities and non disabilities to work and collaborate together.

Since 2013 I have been an arts facilitator with the Alternative Arts School at the gallery, which is a visual arts programme working with artists with learning disabilities. The sessions are self directed, focusing on the creative process and exploration of art mediums and techniques which are inspired by the exhibitions at the gallery, Richard Glynn Vivian’s collections, life experiences and interests.
