PORTFOLIO PROJECTS

Participating in and engaging others within creative projects has been a vital aspect of my practice since 2018. As well as an artist residency, I have contributed to a range of group projects with other artist and creative practitioners. These portfolio projects have taken place within a broad variety of contexts and include a range of public engagement activities.

WEAR WARE

​In 2018, I was invited to collaborate with artist Katie Schwab and Foundation Press, and students from the University of Sunderland to produce a range of blow glassware. This collaboration was part of the Common Room project at the National Glass Centre, Sunderland.

WHAT WOULD LEONARDO MAKE TODAY?

In January 2019, I completed a 2 month collaboration with students from the University of Sunderland to produce works in response to the theme, What would Leonardo make today? The resulting work was exhibited as part of the Leonardo da Vinci : A Life in Drawing Exhibition  at Sunderland Museum and Winter Gardens Gallery, and commissioned by curator Shauna Gregg.

SR1 RESIDENCY

In November 2019, I was awarded the SR1 Residency, a 9 month studio residency exploring the early ceramics industry in the North East. This residency was produced by curator Vincent Todd and supported by Arts Council England, MBC studios and Sunderland Culture, and resulted in a solo exhibition at the Mackie's Corner Contemporary Art Space in Sunderland.

Ushaw Light Installation

In 2018, I was one of several artists to work alongside Durham Lumiere Artist Mick Stephenson at Ushaw College Chapel. We produced a vast light installation for the two day Festival of Creativity Conference hosted by Durham Creatives.
