b. 1991
based in london
Most recently, I created a three-channel screendance (Call on Me, Me, Me) oriented around a set of overlapping interviews with my father, working with him to spin a new biography of our family’s history, genders, and bodies. Call on Me, Me, Me was presented at the 2024 Goldsmiths MA Artist Film and Moving Image degree show. I have shown prior work at APT Gallery, Coaxial Arts L.A., IKSK Berlin, the Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, my bedroom, and underground bunkers all over Berlin.​
I’m a visual artist working with moving image, photography, poetry and dance. I’m interested in the moments when the weight of a relationship, an identity or a perception shifts underfoot.
​
I mostly focus on queer bodies as hotspots of these disruptions, exploring them as movement-processes that transgress and confuse the spaces that contain our senses of reality.
inner and outer
physical and virtual
public and private
I center my own trans non-binary body as a phenomenological site
of investigation. I seek the errors, invisibilities, and hybridities that emerge from its spatial and social exchanges. I generate material through a dance practice based in contemporary improvisation and somatics.
Pipilotti Rist, Ana Mendieta, Brian Massumi, Ito Takashi, Stéphane Vial, Hideo Kojima, Arca, DV8 Theatre, and Jeremy Shaw are all strong influences in my work.
