Recently I applied to an open call for artists from itsliquid group and I was invited to show my work in at THE ROOM contemporary art space in Venice for an exhibition called ‘Visions – the garden of liquid identities’, which […]
At the start of my current project, I played around a little with the idea of using food in my art practice. I’ve played with food before as seen here. It was a lot of fun but I’m unsure if […]
Well I had it all planned out didn’t I? I declared but a few weeks ago that I’d use this blogging space to assess and appraise each of the three planets I’m going to devise a scented experience for in […]
Recently I’ve been exploring making domestic objects useless as their intended purpose. I’ve had lots of fun with the project so far and I still have more work to come, but this has been a new way of working for […]
Perfumed Planets #1 – Saturn and Sillage As my work for my upcoming solo show in Blackburn is ticking along nicely I thought it appropriate to dedicate the next three weeks arriving at some important creative decisions concerning my upcoming […]
I’m slowly figuring out what exactly it is that I want to convey through my work. I’m finding it difficult because I work quite intuitively with materials, so I tend to reflect on what it is I’m trying to say […]
Something I’ve been really considering with my work this term is how to display pieces. My degree show is coming up really fast and it’s forcing me to consider different ways to display my work. For this piece in particular […]
In the autumn of 2017, I was invited to develop a piece for presentation for the 2018 sonADA festival in Aberdeen. This would be a live performance and I was reassured that as long as I made some sound, I […]
A project I have planned coming soon, using petri dishes, was influenced by Sonja Baumel’s work where she lays her body into a large petri dish (acting like the canvas) and lets the bacteria from her body grow (acting like […]
I really enjoy working with organic materials in my practice. There’s something almost quite wrong about it, as though I’m breaking some kind of rule or something. Hair is something I’ve found myself working with this year. This is one […]
I have continued to explore memento and artefacts. My interest in the urn has increased and I am currently working with vessels of various shapes and sizes. I am considering the mother as a vessel and the interchangeability of the […]
I’m currently in the last term of university at Carmarthen School of Art, and this term I’ve been focusing on working with domestic, every day objects. My aim is to experiment with them and try to make them useless in […]
A major aim of my Contemporary Art Cross-stitch practice is to push the boundaries of what cross-stitch can be, and attempt to create new ways of working within the medium. I began to experiment with painting on cross-stitch fabric, originally […]
The Latin American House was full for the night. A mixture of Mexicans, Venezuelans, Colombians, Chileans, Argentinians, Britons and more filled the atmosphere with loud conversations heard in Spanish and English simultaneously. It was the first event of the Latinos […]
As in any of my practice, I hate the excuse that something can’t be done simply because I don’t have the right equipment or materials, or enough money etc. There are creative solutions to these problems if you look hard […]
For my first series of paintings this year I wanted a challenge. I wanted to document and translate scenes that contain all the forms, shapes and weather conditions of our landscape. I chose Wales as my muse. From vivid green […]
