Statement
My creative practice is varied and encompasses different graphic art and design forms, including printmaking, risograph, photography and collage. I often combine these media to develop my creative process. As a print artist, my interest lies in how our environment shapes and influences our experiences, ultimately shaping who we are and who we will become. I aim to convey how humans constantly evolve and change, becoming a new and different version of themselves. This transformative process is what I seek to explore and express in my work, using a range of screen printing techniques.
