Artist & Filmmaker

I am an award-winning filmmaker and artist whose research-led practice brings together photography, text, poetry, sound and moving image. Drawing on archives, manuscripts, archaeology, people and places marked by history, I explore material traces, memory and the ways stories are constructed and reimagined.
