Description

My non-linear and semi-autobiographical works examine the processes we use for communicating, manipulating and reading visual messages. In this series of British and Indian imagery, the frame and grid provide a structure that facilitates a dialogue between inside/ outside and a tension between what is known, assumed and thought.

I am an artist, illustrator and educator from the UK, currently working from Bangalore. My work has featured in publications including: The Guardian, The Independent, Time Out, NY Arts Magazine and Creative Review, as well as international books such as ‘Fully Booked’ and ’Illusive 2′ by Gestalten. From 2004-2006 I illustrated for Peter Aspden’s weekly art and culture column in FT Magazine.

Over the past few years I have exhibited in Canada, France, Japan, England, Germany, Netherlands and Sardinia. Recently a video collaboration with artist Smriti Mehra, entitled ‘Ink’, was featured as part of 'Images de l'Inde' at Centre Pompidou, Paris.
