About me
I graduated in 2020 from the Slade School of Fine Art with a BA in Fine Art, with a First Class Honours.I come from a fine art background and my practice focuses on both sculpture and printmaking. I am keen to pursue a career as a production designer/set designer for theatre, TV and/or film. The sets not only provide the environment/backdrop of a production, but they also visually communicate the narrative of a plot and the characters within it. The process is vital of the making is intentional and vital and ultimately it is the the subtleties and details within any set that create an overall context and immersive environment.
My sculptural work often references the architecture of space and how architecture can direct and influence our movement around certain spaces and I feel this translates into set design. Often the sculptures I create become the protagonist within the installation. I have skills in processes such as mould- making and casting and I have a great understanding of working with different materials.
Since graduating I have worked as a freelance scenic painter, dresser and prop maker. I have worked for various companies such as Scene2 as a freelance scenic painter and Selfridges as a window dresser.
I am a hard working and enthusiastic individual with excellent communication skills, who is keen to start a career working in the art/ set/ prop department of TV and Film Productions.
Additional skills:
I have training operating a scissor lift as well as a scaffolding license.
