About

I believe in challenging and expanding our sensory perception of the natural world. Moving away from a human-centric understanding of Earth I translate non-human sensory experience, adding to our knowledge about how other species experience the world, through photographic and extended reality (XR) mediums.

I’m inspired by theories about the nature of reality; often considering “conscious realism” – how our senses have evolved to create our environment. This sensory environment dictates our behaviour, and should we want to operate with empathetic purpose for life on our planet, then we should seek a greater sensory experience.

I want us to explore, connect and wonder within nature through portals into the otherwise imperceptible, which leads me to create artwork that immerses us in other species’ realities.
