ABOUT

As an emerging, multi-disciplinary visual artist from a classical ballet background, I enjoy exploring a wide scope of practice. My work primarily encompasses performance and photography (as well as occasional sculpture, painting and dance projects). Through this practice, I aim to explore new concepts, emotions, and ways of working, as relevant to myself as an individual and the world around me. Currently my focus has been brought towards portraiture and notions of gender, as studied through experimental camera techniques. These ideas have been most recently expressed through my collections Bodyjewels & Bodyjewels 2, in which I also explore the stereotypical connotations of objects. 

​

The other prominent part of my practice concerns itself with performance, in particular, experimenting with the space between dance and performance art.  I am interested in playing around with these boundaries; exploring bodily movement as art, and seeing what new notions can be nurtured. Prior to dedicating my time to the visual arts, my life was based solely in classical ballet (which I studied at an elite-level for eight years). My training brought me to various locations across Europe, including Elmhurst Ballet School, England, where I completed my final years of tuition. Following the finalisation of my training, I was also fortunate to secure an apprenticeship with DJKT ballet company in the Czech Republic, however this was unfortunately deferred for both Covid-19 and injury. Over the years, I was fortunate to be trained by a range of brilliant teachers, most of whom were ex-principal ballerinas themselves. I will forever owe a debt to them for the great deal of knowledge they passed down to me.
