My practice is currently focused around printmaking stretched into its broadest sense of existence to explore, document and translate both physically and naturally occurring traces through the medium of print. I enjoy the challenges of site specific work as well as creating works outside of the typical studio environment. My current practice develops my research into Printmaking 2.0 to negotiate new media and digital technologies within old print technologies such as etching.

At present I am researching the notion of the melted matrix within printmaking to develop works that situate the body between the print and the screen. Working with the body as both a source of data and means of data capture I am forming the creation of Live printing to use the information superhighway to stream live prints through the Internet to explore the connected post-human body. Working with AI and VR enables me to explore the creation of semi-sentient prints.

Working in the print room I plan to work with etching processes to create intelligent prints that work as part of performance/installation that take input from data sets and audience participation. Having access to the library will enable me to pursue my academic research, Mined environments and processed landscapes: Applying AI and big data to VR to create experiences to highlight climate change to generate positive behaviour change surrounding sustainability issues.
