I am a photographic artist based in London whose practice explores identity, memory, language, and human relationships through photography, alternative photographic processes, and mixed-media works.
Although my work is rooted in photography, it extends beyond the photographic surface, treating the image as a material object that can be fragmented, layered, embedded, and transformed.
My work was recognised by the British Journal of Photography’s Portrait of Britain Award in 2019 and 2021 and has been exhibited in the UK and Europe, including at the London Cluster of Photography and Print, the Festival Surreal and Creative Photography in France, and ImageNation Paris. I live and work in London.
My experience on the Diploma course has been nothing short of exceptional. The wide range of educational materials and techniques covered has helped me broaden my horizons and expand my knowledge. The course is both informative and inspiring.
I particularly value the opportunity to discuss my own practice during the monthly meetings, as well as the ongoing support available on a regular basis. The combination of structured learning, creative exploration, and constructive feedback has made the course an enriching and rewarding experience.
Highlight Project
My practice is rooted in photography, but it extends beyond the photographic image. I treat photography as a starting point rather than as a finished object, using processes of layering, fragmentation, embedding, and material intervention to transform images into physical works that exist between photography, object, and artefact.
I am interested in how identity is constructed through our encounters with others. Influenced by Witold Gombrowicz’s notion that form is imposed upon us, I explore the ways in which we are continuously shaped by external expectations, social roles, and personal relationships. Identity, in this sense, is never fixed, but constantly negotiated, performed, and transformed.
Materiality plays a central role in this investigation. Whether working with cyanotype, fragile handmade supports, image transfer, or found materials, I use process as a metaphor for memory, transformation, and the instability of perception.
Ultimately, my work raises a simple but persistent question: where does the self end and imposed form begin?
