ABOUT
I am a predominantly a sound / 4D artist interested in sonic sculpture/materiality, manipulating sound distorting technologies, drums/beat narrative and performance.
My current focus is through ethnographic research into the exploration of traditional skills/languages that have been affected by colonial legacies. I am using it to develop a dialogue reflecting decolonialisation and neo-colonialism. The outcomes of these include the use of various experimental technologies and sound distortion, combined with sculpture and a beat driven narrative.
