I am a transdisciplinary artist exploring the interrelated phenomena of mind, body, and consciousness within hegemonic systems of identity. As a queer, mixed-race, non-binary person whose body carries multiple cultural heritages, I draw on my lived experience of surviving epistemic violence to create artworks that empower marginalised people.
Currently in the write-up year of a practice-based Phd in the Art and Computing Departments at Goldsmiths, my project is supported by Generation Delta, an initiative of the Black Female Professors Forum. Through embodied research, community-building, and collaborative experimentation, I co-create immersive experiences that counter the dissociative effects of emerging technologies by reorienting attention inward, reclaiming the body as a site of knowledge, historical healing, and empowerment.
Recent project include Breathscapes, supported by Immersive Arts (2025-2026); Your Rage is Sacred (maa), supported by ACE and FormaHQ (2023-2024); Metamorph, presented at Eastside Projects (Birmingham, 2024), VSSL, The Bomb Factory, Goldsmiths CCA (London, 2023), Well Projects (Margate, 2022) and Jupiter Woods (London, 2021).
After three years chairing the Artists Council at a-n, The Artists Information Company, I now continue to serve on its Board of Directors, contributing to artist advocacy nationally and internationally through IAA Europe and IAA World. I am also part of the Senior Tutor team at the Ruskin School of Art, University of Oxford.
