Having graduated from York St John University with a Joint Honours (BA) Degree in English Literature and Fine Art in 2013, settling into the creative environment of Birmingham has been a relatively easy move. Whilst volunteering with a variety of different organisations and contemporary galleries including; Eastside Projects, Grand Union, Ikon, Created in Birmingham, Flatpack Film Festival and Writing West Midlands, I have been developing my own practice by continuing to follow my interest in poetry and spoken word performances, as well as reference back to my art practice with hopes of collaborating with other artists to curate and experiment with exhibition spaces (established and unestablished) here in Birmingham. Always happy to investigate or write about new events, I look forward to further developing my interests with Mac Gallery and the Cannon Hill Art Collective.
