UK born (1995) and currently based in Stockholm.
In my craft-based practice, I work with stop motion animation and dialogues to build narratives around hand crafted characters and objects. The core of my artistic interest and research is centred around an exploration of Western societal ideals and power dynamics - consumer culture, material value systems, and object identity associations are key areas of research. I am interested in the politics of narrative; the reciprocal relationship between narrative, the ‘collective consciousness’ and the power structures that support the continued existence of an unequal capitalist society.
