Artist Statement

My work is driven by a personal pursuit of cultural identity, a sense of belonging and a love for the mystical.

This shapes my practice, which creates space for differences to be recognised and valued. By respecting diversity, an inclusive environment is set that nurtures authenticity. This allows discovery within my work, trusting the organic flow of the moment and allowing the power of creation to reveal itself.

My style is timeless, mysterious, pure, and soft, yet with a raw edge. This blends in perfectly with my biggest passion, Analogue Photography, which allows me to slow down and be fully present in the moment, where the Magick happens.

I believe that authentic Self-expression is medicine.
