A recent graduate from the University of Sunderland’s Glass and Ceramics BA (Hons.) I am currently undertaking a PhD in Ceramics researching the topic of ceramic-based installation.

Much of my practice is based around fine art concept, however following a number of successful exhibitions my practice has evolved and merged the two aspects of hade made, designed product and conceptual installation.

A number of residencies in India have further solidified how the handmade can sit side by side with the mass produced. Visiting potteries and ceramic artists in India enabled me to assist in redesign work and refresh my technical skills.

In the past year I have exhibited in New Delhi, Ahmadabad and in Newcastle at the Design Event Mart. I also exhibited and spoke the British Ceramic Biennial.
