Visual Art, Children’s Theatre and Facilitation.
I am a visual artist, children's theatre maker and facilitator working at the intersection of creativity, community and education.
Hello!
Over more than fifteen years I have built a practice rooted in immersive storytelling and participatory art-making, work that kindles the imaginative worlds of children of all ages and the adults I work with too.
I believe deeply in young people's capacity to question, make connections and imagine. I aim to create work that stokes ideas and leaves room for unanswered questions.
My work spans long-term residencies, social inclusion initiatives and cross-disciplinary collaborations. I am a founding member of Tallyho, a collective of artists making theatre and experiences for young people. Our production Boss Rob: A Masterclass for Aspiring Artists won the Excellence in Innovation in Children's Theatre award at Dublin Fringe Festival 2024.
I am available for illustration commissions, arts facilitation and creative collaboration and consultation.
Education: MA (Distinction), Children's Book Illustration, Cambridge School of Art. Professional Diploma, Art & Design Education, NCAD. BA (Hons), Fine Art Print, NCAD.
