| About the Artist | |
My recent practice has developed from a project based on caravans. This was initially activated after discovering an old photograph of my mother; sister and I in my grandparent’s caravan and this re-discovery of a forgotten moment and time instigated a project that explored memory, temporality, space and home. I have been working with the possibility and impossibility of capturing this memory. |
