For three years now I have been cycling down to the Severn to sleep on the river banks. Using ground, tidal water, voice and light as material, my work takes the form of film loops, field recordings and drawings. Recently I have shown Bore Song, Song of Grief and Body of Water alongside a series of drawings in a solo show at Danielle Arnaud, London (Nov/Dec 2011) and at Meantime Project Space, Cheltenham (May 2011).  I currently have two drawings touring with the Jerwood Drawing Prize 2011 and a forthcoming residency in a lighthouse on the Atlantic coast in Norway, this to be followed by a solo show at Ha gamle prestegard in Norway from June to August 2012.
