Biografia
I am a visual artist based in London. Physicality underpins a creative practice with my skin as a primary source for corporeal artwork and imaginative transformation. Compulsive Skin Picking dominated my life for more than 20 years, but through a background in dance and theatre, I confronted the condition to harness creative repair and recovery. I create intimate artworks, photographs and performances exploring the body-focused repetitive behaviour of skin picking. I have exhibited and performed in therapuetic settings, galleries and venues in the UK, Australia, USA and Japan. I aspire to de-stigmatise Compulsive Skin Picking and mental illness. I aim to raise awareness and advocate recovery through public talks, specialist commissions, residencies and exhibitions.
