Now I am a dancer. Now I am a performer, a prop maker, and a choreographer. With over three decades of experience in sculpture, my artistic practice is anything but linear. Rooted in a transdisciplinary approach, I weave together somatic perception, performative installations, and collaborative encounters. My other training in psychoanalysis and research at Trinity Laban and Independent Dance has shifted my exploration of what is felt before language is found to pin it down. I test boundaries, through the strategies of improvisation, humour, and presence, charting new speculative pathways that engage with complex contemporary conditions: local, global, planetary and imaginary, amidst cycles of change.
Serving as a micro-magnifier and transformer of reality within my practice, this process of engagement can challenge dominant systems of power and address ecological destruction. My assemblage improvisations are building alternative perspectives and alliances, however fleeting and contingent, for being with the mess.
Blurring the line between sculptural form and choreography, recent projects have focused on de-materialising through working with my body as a medium in space, bound to otherworldly dislocation. I generate hypometabolic states to restructure and warp the ordinary flow of time, shifting it between past, present, and future. explore various modes of representation, release, and being here. The result is an immersive experience. My practice exists in direct conversation with its current situation and with the viewer, that’s you. It forges moments of absurdity, friction, tenderness and collective reflection.
Whether I’m summoning absence from presence, investigating invisible hallucinatory phenomena, performing improvised world-building with paper props, or ushering you into unfamiliar places, my work is about preparing grounds and habitats for critical thought, shared feeling, and holding space for this. I invite you to join me in wandering, further still, into the unknown.
