"I graduated in 2007 after 4 years in The Crawford College of Art and Design. In my work" she explains, "I am dealing with aspects of what it is to be human. Through the use of a narrative I hope to convey situations and sentiments which are common to all. The notion of the absurd nature of everyday activities is something which I find fascinating, yet I am also interested in the inherent sense of hopefulness that is to be found within mankind. The balance between these two ideas is where my work lies."
