About Me
Currently living in Lancashire, I graduated from The Glasgow School of Art in June 2009 with a first class BA (Hons) degree in Fine Art Photography. Although I specialised in photography, I choose to work in a variety of mediums, as I dont like restricting myself. I am currently investigating the realms of correspondence and seeing where it will take me. I am presently working on a temporary basis to fund my practice as an artist. I enjoy finding inspiration in the most unexpected places, especially when I am not looking.

Boundaries, definitions, medical dictionaries, ambivalence, fascination, reactions, anticipations, humour, psychology, philosophy, the places we go to hide, isolation, solidarity, creature comforts. History, finding yourself, losing yourself.
