Hello

A Bit About Me

I’m a multidisciplinary artist and anthropologist exploring identity, humanity, connection, and the many selves we carry through the world.

 

I make and orchestrate work across theatre, visual art, community participation, and lived experience. All the while, I’m interested in the stories we tell, the roles we perform, the things we hide, and the ways we find each other anyway.

 

Mostly, I’m drawn to a deeper understanding of what unfolds when people feel safe enough to show up honestly, and of how art can help us see ourselves – and each other – more clearly.

 

I live with DID, which means questions of voice, memory, embodiment, and personhood aren’t only artistic ideas for me – they’re lived experience.

Personal Artist Statement

personal

I am a multidisciplinary artist and anthropologist interested in exploring the depth and breadth of human experience. I am not afraid of going into the messy and the muck of authentic living as I seek to understand another. I believe wholeheartedly in the underlying goodness of human beings. I believe that empathy, tolerance, understanding, and love are built amid our differences and through shared experiences, especially those that challenge us and invite us to ask more of ourselves. 

 

I am not afraid of taking chances, travelling into the unknown, or peering into the darkness, because experience has convinced me that, even in the darkest places and among the seemingly most uninviting people, there is always light and something to love. Seek it, and you shall find it. 

 

I am a 52-year-old woman who calls three countries home and currently lives in the place where she was not born. I have travelled widely, experienced deeply, soared high, and fallen hard. My work explores the journey of a life authentically lived. 

 

My practice moves across theatre, visual art, installation, performance, participation, music, conversation, and whatever other forms an idea insists on becoming. I am drawn to interdisciplinary and immersive work that invites people not simply to observe, but to enter. To feel. To question. To connect. To encounter themselves and each other differently.

 

I am interested in creating experiences that blur the boundaries between audience and artwork, between artist and participant, between spectacle and shared humanity. I undertake work that is theatrical, emotionally honest, visually rich, and deeply human; work that asks people to laugh, cry, reflect, remember, and imagine; work that lingers long after the moment itself has passed.

 

At the centre of everything I make is a desire to create spaces of safety, curiosity, courage, and connection. I build spaces where people feel invited to bring more of themselves into the room, where unheard voices are given form and visibility, and where people can explore identity, memory, belonging, grief, hope, and possibility through shared creative experience.

 

I am also interested in the power of participation and gathering, in the unexpected possibilities when strangers create together, when people feel seen, when art becomes less about performance and perfection, and more about encounter, transformation, and collective meaning-making.

 

Ultimately, I am about making work that reminds people of their own humanity and of the humanity of others. Such work that reaches into the depths of who we are and asks us to live a little more honestly, courageously, and open-heartedly.
