As a neurodivergent, I am always actively looking for the solace in my surroundings as everyday life can become overstimulating pretty quickly. As an advocate for embedding mindful activities into the daily routine, I became fascinated with how commuters fixate on their phones and take no notice of the environment around them. I collect imagery, using a diary- style documentary technique. In a commercial setting, I may present my work as a single photograph or as a digital collage print.
Back in 2023, I launched my photography company which focuses on escaping the noise of the city and aims to build my very own eden. I work with brands who align with holistic ways of living, bring joy into my own life such as musicians or stylists and I have recently created a line of textile based items that have been created through a collaboration between myself and upcoming Manchester based designers. These allow my clients to bring a piece of eden with them, wherever they go and encourage moments of mindfulness in their busy lives.
