As I reflect on being a mature student, I can appreciate the advantages my life experiences, both personal and professional are a motivator in my creative process. I immerse myself in study of trauma and its impact, looking at the term as an umbrella covering a large scope of issues. Childhood trauma, addiction, attachment, and gender-based violence. Inspiration is predominantly coming from research which I find that triggers a desire within me to share with others.
I consider my work is a tool of activism. A means to communicate a message of awareness and invite discussion. I believe my work reflects the enthusiasm I have for social issues and raising awareness, addressing trauma and its social impact.
I am looking forward to studying Fine art at Edinburgh College of Art in September.
