Personal Summary

I am a practicing contemporary artist, lecturer, and postdoctoral researcher whose work explores the intersections of art, technology, and human experience. Currently, I hold a TU-RISE Postdoctoral Research Fellowship with the inTRUSTED Project at Munster Technological University / Crawford College of Art & Design (CCAD), where I investigate how embodied artistic methodologies can inform trust, ethics, and resilience in digital ecosystems. My research bridges art, philosophy and computer science, developing practice-based approaches that connect creative practice with questions of embodiment and socio-ethical innovation. Through artist-led experimentation, co-design, and interdisciplinary collaboration, I use artistic research to help create new frameworks for building trust in next-generation digital systems and robotics. Previously, I lectured in Contemporary Art for over a decade at the University of the Arts London, contributing to curriculum development, assessment, and pedagogical design. My teaching emphasised critical reflection, material exploration, and creative risk-taking, fostering students’ ability to integrate conceptual thinking with artistic practice. I have presented lectures and workshops at institutions including the Courtauld Institute, University of Brighton, University of Southampton, Camberwell College of Arts, and Tate, contributing to discussions around contemporary art, digital practice, and embodied research.
