I’m an artist working with sound-led experiments in performance, film, installation and radio programmes. Often my work depicts attempted acts of sonic alchemy; taking samples of abject bodily sounds and using them as material to create ambient harmonic phrases. The idea in this flipping of associations with sound is to question our learnt societal behaviours towards our own bodies and each other’s.


Humans find connection through a variety of coded language and behaviours- these 'rules'that we call manners can also act as a barrier to each other. This point of rejection is my enquiry; I’m trying to better understand human relationships and challenge those barriers to it using tools of absurdity and body politics.


More recently I have been actively seeking out external noises through the body that so often I have been tyring to avoid in my recordings. I delivered a talk ‘The Body as Site [for field recording]’ as part of CRiSAP’s ‘In the Field ||’ at London College of Communication which focused on using the body as a vehicle to better understand the relationship with onesself, with one another and with our environment. I’ve been able to capture external environmental noises such as cars, flowing water, industrial machines and birdsong being registered in the body. I’m now exploring what that means and how this can be used for positive action.
