My Story
Interdisciplinary Artist based in London.
My paintings, depict my experience as a triadic Immigrant, born in the deserts of Arabia, reared on the Emerald Isle and now carving out a life in London.
Inspired by flora, water and mountains, I carve out a relationship to ‘place’, and a sense of internal belonging in communing with individuality and personhood.
Dreamy and luscious, each work creates a place of Serenity for the viewer, a sense of ‘home’, safety and renewal.
The ‘Red Collection’ is a Celebration of Colour and Vibrancy within, I draw out a world in Red to signify the visceral nature of the space between sight and the object, perception, and reality.
Flowing through constrictions of ‘Otherness’, ‘Immigrant’, ‘Brown’, always ‘Visible and Different’, is my stake in the world.
I create an identity that, through Divination, takes ownership of the racialised and sexualised narrative that has entwined the binaries of my brown body and its red counterpart, ‘Wildness’.
My various styles of painting embody the complexity of my inner and outer worlds, the entanglement and dynamism of a deeply personal experience.
15% of all sales are donated to London Wildlife Rescue, in honour and respect of their selfless work, and the priceless value it contributes to our natural world.
