Degree Show May 2016
We had our grand opening last night (27th May). Four of us were selected to appear at Format next year, so that will be exciting and also James and I were selected as best in show, therefore the university will buy some of our work. I am so pleased all our hard work was appreciated.
The Big Show.
Three years have passed and I am about to graduate. I have visited the Jungle in Calais on three occasions, volunteering for one of the charities supporting the migrants.

Artsmith
I currently have an exhibition of my final work at Artsmith in Derby.

Running until 02/04/2015.
Cotesbach Anthotype Research Project
I am currently working on a research project with Dr Kate Wells, investigating anthotypes. These are images made using natural dyes as an emulsion. A transparency of an image is placed on top of the sensitised paper or material and exposed to UV light or sunlight. The process may take days to fade the emulsion and leave a residual image. Plants are being collected from the Cotesbach estate near Lutterworth and the project complements the current work which is investigating the estates history from the large and fascinating family archive.
The initial findings of the research were presented at the Format 15 conference on 10/04/2015 along with some cyanotypes we have also produced.
Derby Fringe, part of Format15 .
This exhibition has now closed. See images under the Derby Fringe menu.
I am exhibiting as a member of the Creative Collective who are part of the Derby fringe events, running in parallel with the Format International Photography Festival exhibition in Derby. See my work at Bang and Olufsen, 47 Queen Street, Derby, DE1 3DE in the Cathedral Quarter of the city. Bang & Olufsen are open Monday to Saturday 10:00 to 17:00 and the exhibition is running from 14/03/2015 – 12/04/2015.
