My new work Gwyrdh Glas - Liwyow a Gernow showed in Redruth in October as part of the inaugural Flamm festival, in partnership with Art Night and as part of Counterpoint Arts’ Platforma 7 programme.
I am one of four artists commissioned to make new work for Flamm, which also included work, performances and screenings by artists from across Cornwall. Gwyrdh Glas - Liwyow a Gernow, sits within my broader MESKLA | Brewyon Drudh project, and comprises of my first publicly exhibited film with a sculptural installation of rubbish sculpture rocks made during public workshops.
For more information please head to the Flamm website. The work also showed as part of Lowender Festival 2023 in Redruth, Kernow.

I took part in Natalie Rigby's radio show The Lock-in on Source FM in June. I chose some of my favourite and most loathed music, and we chatted about growing up in Cornwall, othering, neurodivergence, air-guitar and inspirational nieces. You can listen again via various podcast platforms below is the link for the show on Spotify. There's loads of other great episodes with artists such as Camilla Stacey, Clementine Nield and upcoming is Simon Bayliss.
