In recent screen printing projects, I have been exploring how printmaking forces images to disintegrate into light, colours and shapes, pulled apart and fragmented by the printing process itself. Halftones and gradients suggest dissolution and force the eye to constantly switch focus, looping between the narrative of the full image, and the patterns of colour within it. Overlaid or offset layers fool the mind into reading unity and harmony where there is only disorder and conflicting information.
Intaglio is a recent addition to my practice. My work in this technique has so far been focused on working with found materials I accumulated through a literary research project, creating a space between 19th century London and our modern world. This project explores ideas of erasure and memory, what we share and what we hide, and texts and locations as markers of who we are.
Through the different mediums and different approaches, my practice sets out to find the spaces in-between, entering a liminal space between real and unreal, mundane and uncanny, past and present, figurative and abstraction.
My work has been exhibited in the UK (London, Bath, Glastonbury, Doncaster) and internationally (Paris, Berlin). I have won the Art Hub studio prize at the Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair in 2022.
