My work is usually video based with personal and autobiographical references. The context of the work is based on the representation of identity including an exploration into subverting male and female or family identity. I have worked collaboratively with other artists to curate exhibitions, and with DJs and VJs for club nights. Projects also include projections for live music events. My current favourite influences are Mark Leckey, Stanley Donwood, Vanessa Beecroft, Sam Taylor Wood, The Bays, Pil and Galia Kollectiv.

Original music is often an important component to my work and I have collaborated with Martin Warnes (Resonator), Jim Shaw (The Cranes
), Jon Callender (Carmen Rosa) and Dean Clarke (Vex).
