Artist Statement
I am an artist and LGBTQIA+ inclusive freelance photographer for hire based in Essex, whose practice centres around filmmaking and photography.
I often employ the use of outdated technologies and old software, including VHS tapes, film photography, VHS cameras and animation which I create in Flipnote Studio.
My work often includes themes such as lived experiences, LGBTQIA+ rights and activism, empowerment, intersectional identities, queerness, neurodivergence and mental health.
I am interested in sustainable and reusable tech and often work with second-hand or refurbished devices, such as my CRT TV and VHS cameras.
I hope to work with 8mm/16mm film in the future, as I enjoy the physicality and nostalgia which come when working with analogue technology.
