Information

I am a ceramist and mixed media visual artist creating playful work that takes inspiration from a variety of natural structures and my East Asian heritage.

My latest work 'Biome' combines illuminated sculptural and aural elements, Biome will be touring the uk for the next event please see my blog!.

I also run community art workshops and specialise in delivering ceramic, mixed media sculpture and workshops themed around East Asian culture and arts.

I have extensive experience of working with vulnerable groups. These include participants based in pupil referral units, children high on the Autism spectrum, and adults who are in or have been through the mental health system.

In 2009 I co founded Forman street studios, based on Forman street Derby. We aim to provide an affordable creative space for a number of local artists.
