Experimental Spatial Capture
Dynamic + Immersive Storytelling




ABOUT

I am an artist, researcher, and senior lecturer in transmedia storytelling. I have experience in public-facing live projects and facilitation of practice research within cultural spaces, working with stakeholders, arts councils, and local communities.

My practice explores transmedia storytelling as an emerging practice within heritage, visual communication, and interaction design disciplines. My interests centre on the interstices between computation, instrumentality, and human experience.
The application of remote sensing techniques fosters a relationship with virtual environments that embrace indeterminacy over exact representation. Instead, they are investigated as spatial-critical mediums that reveal hidden narratives and reconstruct collective memory.

FENTY






                FENTY x Rihanna x Harvey Nichols 2017

 I have worked freelance in concept, design, production and installation for fashion and events with Matt Wingfield at Matt Wingfield Studios since 2013. Clients include Vivienne Westwood, Harvey Nichols, The White Company, Mint Velvet, Habitat, Cafe Nero, White Stuff, Diesel, Nails Inc., etc.
This is one of my favourite collaborative projects with Matt Wingfield Studio which was comissioned by Harvey Nichols and Rihanna.
FENTY live launch project was seven days of live graphic art on Sloane Street. Our team of five developed the display over 210 hours, transforming the Knightsbridge windows public walkway. The process was captured over a week with a new layer added every night.
