"A LIFELESS digital CONTRADICTION."

I am an artist, researcher, and curator, my practice currently explores communication,  miscommunication, misinterpretation and mistakes. I have recently been researching the importance of listening spaces in communities and I am interested in alternative learning spaces.  Through a multidisciplinary practice, I have been investigating the intimacy of electronic devices and digital hospitality observing how new social histories and fictional realities are being created through shared technologies. I am interested in how these inevitable formats of communication can be used to share collective joy, resistance, and hope while being faced with the difficulties of privacy, false news and hidden algorithms.  This correlates with my involvement in facilitating workshops inspired by accessible and collective learning. 

I am influenced by work ethics, AI, digital, communication, Neurodiversity, peripherals, language and myth through a multidisciplinary practice.
