REIMAGINING SPACES

THROUGH MOVEMENT

ABOUT

I am a movement installation artist creating choreographic works that reimagine everyday spaces. My practice explores the intersections of movement, space and technology - using interdisciplinary formats to tell compelling stories and invite new ways of seeing.

Rooted in socially engaged, co-creative processes, I choreograph public installations that navigate lived experience, architecture, and community.

I am committed to reaching audiences beyond traditional theatre contexts - inviting people to stumble across movement in their daily lives, encounter dance in public space, and engage with performance in ways that feel immediate and accessible. My work exists within and responds to site, fostering deep connections with the communities it inhabits. By embedding dance in public art, I explore how choreography can reshape environments, amplify voices, and create shared moments of discovery. 

I work as a choreographer, movement director, and dance researcher - continually expanding the possibilities of movement in public space.

I hold a First Class BA (hons) Dance and Choreography degree from Falmouth University where I trained in choreography, contemporary, ballet, physical theatre, improvisation and research. I later trained on Studio Wayne McGregor’s PEER programme and continue to develop my practice through interdisciplinary collaborations.
