About me
I am an embroidery artist working from my home studio in West Sussex. My art practice explores online presentations of femininity and sexuality, embracing a distinct new form of self-portraiture visible on social media.
I aim to translate internet culture through the medium of embroidery, embracing its history of shared women’s cultural production. Through the appropriation of canonised images, my work allows for a distinctly feminist confrontation with art history’s lack of representation.
I grew up on the Isle of Wight and have shared as much of my time there as possible, enjoying the more relaxed pace of life and closeness to nature. I graduated from Kingston University in 2017 with an Undergraduate Degree in Fine Art and have been creating embroidery art ever since discovering and falling in love with the art-form in my final year. For the majority of my degree I spent my time learning about women's art and feminist art, and wrote my dissertation with the title of "From My Bedroom To Yours: how selfies and social media has transformed women's contemporary self-representation".
