I’m a contemporary performance practitioner and a visual maker, based in Glasgow.

 

My work is mainly inspired by worlds of mythology and make-belief, associative streams of consciousness, iconography and the images that emerge from acknowledging the abundance of existence. In my practice, I work with abstraction, absurdity and melodrama, and drawn to present and or celebrate things in their most extreme, grotesque form.

 

My research often centres around lateral thinking, new arrangements of what exists in reality, with attention to what it triggers in the mind. I craft my own costumes and sets and I consider the visual the most crucial way of communicating. My visuals making is inspired by psycho-magic, and sustainable practices. My movement and writing practice are driven by body/ mind frequencies and urges. inspired by Butoh, body weather, and body archive philosophies, I aspire to generate movement that is authentic and led by the state of the self and its surrounding sceneries. My writing practice incorporates spelling mistakes and accidents of dyslexia.

 

Regardless to what the topic is (from extreme pain to fanatic love), I always try to work with acknowledgement and gratitude to What There Is and resist the focus on what there isn’t.
