My artwork and practice give shape and colour to the worlds we find ourselves in. It is informed by my experience, strength and hope. I work between the UK and Italy and create paintings that capture the spirit of the dreamt, experienced or imagined.
​
"The paintings have a sense of tension and time that create a strong psychological atmosphere for the shadows and phantoms that surface from the gestural complexity of the the space/ground of the canvas. The figures seem conjured up from a complex conversation between the personal and the historical" John Strutton RCA 25
