Title taken from Kate Tempest lyrics from Europe is Lost
‘growth of prosthetic industry struck contemporaries as creating a race of half-mechanical men and became an important theme in Dadaist work.’

I work in Arts and Health across collage, sculpture, photography and curated events. I am curious how we use our senses. The materials I use have sensory qualities like scented plants and tactile papers. This helps me to stay present and focussed. Much of my work is in partnership and collaboration which excites and sustains new discoveries. Some of which appear into interactive artworks that connects people, objects and spaces.
