What makes us who we are, and what or who defines our identity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b17fe735cfd79af97b3aa66/1529403764831-4P4RT2W7JJAK9MZVDRB7/DSC_0129.JPG Projects Images from a current and ongoing project exploring identity, what forms it has taken in the past, in different cultures, and how it will define us in the future. Many of these works are interactive involving QR codes and scannable NFC components. I am inspired by future technologies and how hyper connectivity is changing the definition of identity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b17fe735cfd79af97b3aa66/1557749179383-VI6V6W98KBYPX1D1NX00/3.jpg Projects - Totem These few artworks were created during a 6 month stay in my childhood home, after living away for 4 years. Being in these old spaces encouraged me to reflect on the passing of time relative to our personal identity. The works act as a stamp of my now self on these relevant spaces where I lived out my shy childhood and teenage years. They are a reassurance to my past and current self that I am my own person, capable of original artistic creation. A confident, bold and un-ignorable mark, a show to re affirm my identity, to myself and to the viewer.

Future relics of past technologies created by a humanoid robot race. ‘The Creator’ is a shrine-like monument to the God of their world, the ancient creator and original architect, the bringer of life. https://www.summervarley.com/exhibitions daily 0.75 2019-10-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b17fe735cfd79af97b3aa66/1529774758909-SCYR6V7O6ELUL4NAMVWR/18057864_1716231391726234_3312301548117088041_n.jpg Exhibitions - 11th-13th April 2017 Sion Hill Campus, Bath A collaborative exhibition with two other artists, exploring play and interactivity within a gallery setting.
