Multi-disciplinary Artist
I am best described as a multi-disciplined artist, with a diverse and transferable skill set that may be applied to a variety of areas. However, my true passion lies in the practical application of these skills. I always take a hands-on approach to my work, revelling in the chance to stuck in and actively learn. Throughout my time at Birmingham City University, my projects have been underpinned by my personal interest in audience psychology and targeted marketing. My audience derived practice has led me to specialise in experience-based events. I am excited by practices that use audience psychology to heighten and enrich audience experience. This focus on experience is at the core of my design belief system, along with ethical and environmentally conscious design.
