I am interested in performance and performativity, documentary practices, subjectivity and fiction. My commitment to working creatively around the current economic, social and ecological crises forged The Gluts (Hayley Newman, Gina Birch and Kaffe Matthews) and our eco-electro musical Café Carbon which we took to the Copenhagen Climate Summit in 2009. For Café Carbon we wrote songs about food and climate.

My pre-Occupy novella Common, written as Self-Appointed Artist-in-Residence in the City of London over the summer of 2011, was published by Copy Press in 2013. In Common I wrote about the economic crisis from within; as it was happening on the streets of the Square Mile. Alongside fantastical imaginings and writings from the heart, the book documents the crash in global markets caused by the downgrading of American debt, turbulence in the Eurozone and the riots that started in London before spreading across Britain.

Since 2011 I have been making a series of works about faces and building facades, including Histoire Economique, frottage renderings of the fronts of banks in the City of London and Domestique, a series of used dishcloths embroidered with faces. I am am currently engaged with a related writing project that looks at the fragment, subjectivity, memory, faces and building facades.

I was recently an Art360 award holder. Art360 is an independent charity set up to empower artists and estates to manage, protect and make their work accessible.
