I am an Irish photographic artist based in London. My work is autobiographical in nature and explores concepts of identity.
Narratives of selfhood feature strongly in my practice often drawing on my Irishness and the difficulties of living away from home. My current work is a meditation of my life as an Irish person in London. It explores migration and belonging and challenges the traditional discourses around diaspora.
Nature is a recurring motif in my work, and I am particularly fascinated by how our social and physical environments continually shape and re-shape who we are.
My images are inspired by the intimate encounters I share with the people and landscape where I live.
