Artist & Creative Producer
I grew up in the North York Moors National Park and graduated from Newcastle University with a BA Fine Art in 2009.
I live in Northumberland, creating original works of art as an Artist & Creative Producer.
I received an Arts Council England DYCP grant (2023-2024). In 2021 I received a Creative UK grant to research temporary rural studio hire in Northumberland.
I am currently freelance Associate Producer: New Projects with Northumberland-based theatre company November Club.
Rural landscapes and urban architecture have inspired my current collection of abstract screenprints. Exhibition highlights include BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art, Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair & PrintFest.
As a Creative Producer, I specialise in co-production with artists & communities to realise large-scale projects that enable more people to take part & make decisions about arts & culture. I worked for 9 years as a Creative Producer in the Creative People and Places programme, for Museums Northumberland bait in SE Northumberland and South Tees with Borderlands.
I’ve realised self-initiated projects in UK & Sweden funded by Arts Council England, and artist residencies in England, Sweden & Norway. Previous projects include ‘Flux at 151’ and ‘The Artists’ Window’ reviewed here by Contemporary Visual Arts Network.
