echo 2024 multichannel digital video installation
An egg, top hat, clothes pegs, bird cage and a line of rope - these are just a few of the objects that inhabit the world of echo. This video installation breathes life into objects originally used as props in early films. Archive film material is repurposed combined with imagery and sounds generated through public workshops, the objects are presented in both monochrome and intense, digitally-processed green and red, a nod to George Albert Smith’s 1906 invention of Kinemacolor.

The Wonder Lab - Artist Residency at Hove Museum of Creativity
Part of a week long artist-led team alongside Sapphire Goss, Bella Okuya and Connor Turansky, in residence during The Wonderlab. Developing ideas for new work in response the museum's film collection and a selection of early films made by the Hove Pioneers coutesy of Screen Archive South East. I experiment with ideas through a series of workshop with the public as well as with The Wonder Club (a programme for young people led by artist Chahine Fellahi. We experiment with green screen and loops of early film footage, peforming the objects used as props in the selected early film. The material will be developing into a new video installation intervention within the museum.
Glynndebourne Youth Opera - Artivism
I've been part of a project as a visual artist working with Glyndebourne Youth Opera on the ChangeMaker programme, led by The Human Hive over 8 months (2023/2024). 60 young people in two companies across Sussex explored activism through the arts - music, visual art, theatre and movement - in order to create a lasting legacy of climate related change at Glyndebourne opera house itself. Together we are explored how to use the arts to alert Glyndebourne audiences about the threat of climate change and to persuade them to take a small but significant action of change. The project culminated in a performance event where the work was shared and the audience were invited to actively think about what message they were being communicated and provoked to pledge to make changes, however small in their own lives. In collaboration with the young people we made animations, video, photography, collage and objects to support and share at during the final performace.
