In what I create, I aim to translate everyday shared experiences and memorabilia into something more than it appears. Human connection to the urban environment and our collective experience in a space is what interests me in my practice. Moving from a rural area in the UK to the much more brutal landscape of Manchester during Covid was a drastic change that really affected me, and sparked this interest in our relationship with space. 

By exploring the possibilities of the unnoticed and the universal experiences and symbols in our environment, I aim to create something exciting from the mundane. Found object tells us a story about its past, and I hope to give it a new future through reconstitution- by caring for and connecting with this inanimate object, I hope to somehow connect with its past narrative. 

The normality of throw-away culture is something very prominent in the city, and my recent work involves the collection and archive of abandoned gloves- the sympathetic emotion towards our own junk, the identity we can find in lost objects, and confronting the accepted norm of throw away culture. Through existing, we create waste, transforming our landscape into a new, artificially permanent one.
