As an artist and researcher, I connect material histories – from those flowing through rivers to electromagnetic surveillance systems or large language models. This informs a practice based in performance, sound and video installations, which has led me from various spaces in the UK (The Serpentine, Wysing Arts Center, OVADA) to the US and Latin America.

Recently, I’ve been investigating the history of minerals in supply chains for communications and “green” technology. My latest lecture-performance, ‘Conducting Empire’, investigates the British copper industry, transatlantic slave trade and the undersea cable network.

I received scholarships for my BA in English Literature at Cambridge University (2022) and my MA in Human Rights and the Arts at Bard College (2025). Throughout my studies I have focused on the history and politics of networked technoligies.

I’ve also worked in community wellness, publishing and media outlets. I volunteer for various community and activist projects.
