ABOUT

I am a designer/artist from Bristol (UK), now living in Gent (BE).

My work is socially and spatially conscious, exploring new and playful ways to re-see the everyday and to facilitate connections between people and place. I am interested in the definitions and activation of public space in rural and urban areas and projects with a participatory nature.

I enjoy working collaboratively.
