Through a combination of assemblage, performance, text and print, I examine notions of exchange and value. Expressing curiosity for what shapes value everyday, I borrow from the aesthetic languages of design, sport, consumer culture, and play, making alternative propositions about what is worth, who is it for and where is it found. Such often blur the boundaries between work and play, item and display, usefulness and uselessness, commercial and art object. I also make manuals, diagrams, writings, billboards, curated walks, workshops and events.
I approach making through rational, subjective and absurdist methods including instruction-led choreography, clowning, cut and paste, auto-ethnography, taxonomy. By employing such, I celebrate feminist, new materialist and contrarian approaches.
My practice operates in art, design and pedagogical settings. Rosalind Wilson and I run the nomadic project space On Wheels. I am a proud member of the peer network Crit Club, and I take on graphic design commissions as Call Your Friends. I also teach on BA Illustration & Visual Media at London College of Communication [LCC] University of the Arts London [UAL].
I live between London [UK] and Athens [GR].
