CV

Personal statement
Emerging artist and photographer exploring the intersection of sculpture and function through the creation of everyday, usable objects. Currently completing a BA (Hons) in Photography at the University of the Arts London, my practice combines visual storytelling with a material-led, practical approach.
I am particularly interested in how objects operate both aesthetically and functionally, creating pieces that exist between art and daily life. My work is driven by a balance of creativity and structure, supported by an organised, independent, and dependable working style.
