I engage with different mediums as forms for translation, for example, collage, paint, pencil, conversations and participatory workshops.
For printmaking, I sketch out ideas that reflects the visual dialogue I want to invite. Once motifs are established, I use cutting tools to carve out a relief surface from tiles of linoleum - a natural material that is recyclable and biodegradable. Non toxic inks are rollered onto the tiles, ready to impress on to the material of choice. I use archival papers, repurposed photographs, and upcycled fabric waste where possible to minimise impact to the environment.
The aim is to nurture connections, and uplift typically marginalised narratives as part of British cultural conciousness.
How can we build many worlds that thrive alongside each other?
