Welcome to open, art & information design.
As a writer and an artist I am interested in cultural geography and the experiences of everyday life. I explore the city as a performed and performative space, a palimpsest that records and rewrites the stories of those who have come and gone through the cityscape.
Ideas of journey and site are central to my practice and have formed the basis of a continued research project - Trace, Place and Space - I have been working on, alone and collaboratively, since 2001. This project has involved making work in the fields of new writing, image, music, film, performance and installation.
