Flesh to Bone || Bricks to Mortar, 2022|23

In 2022, the building that held my studio in Primrose Hill was sold. I lost not just a space to create, but the sense of home it gave me. Displaced, body and soul, I drifted-until a friend offered me refuge in a house that was raw, unfinished, almost surreal. Think Francesca Woodman: cracked mirrors, bare beams, rooms thick with silence and memory.

As I moved through this space, I began to see myself in it-its bruises, its resilience. The house became a mirror, a metaphor. From that dialogue between skin and structure came this black-and-white series. The body became the house, the house became the body. Curves align with archways. Spines with staircases. A woman's form threads like a ghost through hollow hearths and forgotten rooms.

The fireplace-once a symbol of warmth-stood empty, yet strong. The cracks in the walls, like the bruises on skin, became places where light could enter. This series is about transformation, reclamation. It's about finding home in the most unexpected places-within ruin, within the self.
