As an artist living in Glasgow I also work freelance as an online editor for a-n The Artists Information Company, managing both Degrees unedited and Students' community sites. After graduating from Leeds University in 2007 I have exhibited in Leeds and Liverpool as well as contributing to shows in China and Russia. To date such exhibitions have been in various spaces, from documented performances in church spires and theatre studios to presenting work in galleries, cafes and office boardrooms.
Through working in galleries, research libraries and archives I have developed a working interest in how such elements take hold of a singular artistic practice: thus my work is more inquiring of the spaces and environments where artworks and their documentation are presented and stored. Building on such interests I have also co-produced various curatorial projects representing artists in alternative settings, such as creative industry offices and Studio Project spaces.
