I am a multi disciplinary creative and scientific practitioner fiercely passionate about encouraging connection, participation and adventure through experiential and immersive arts and events.
Within my arts practice I work at the nexus of art, science and society, specialising in explosives. I create works which often examine concepts of time, density and matter as well as deep human emotions and motivations.
My company Feral, aims to express the creative spirit of humanity on Earth and in Outer Space. Project subjects span architecture, mental health, spaceflight psychology, mixed reality art, dance, performance, and events.
At the European Space Policy Institute my role as a Global Fellow of Creative Impact is to harness the arts and culture to enhance the impact of their policy work.
For me unconventionality is part of innovation. Stepping outside the norm or combining elements from disparate sources to make something new is part of the creative process. The deep unknown that is a pleasure to get lost in. Diversity is also directly connected to innovation as diversity brings varied, perspectives, skills and insights that open the door to new paradigms.
Embracing diversity also means that I take my responsibility as a global citizen seriously and contribute by using the resources available to me, be it my voice, money, connections, time etc. to challenge all kinds of diversity bias. I strive to be an effective ally. I do not look away.
I am a member of Women in Aerospace working to address gender disparity (for all) in the space sector. I am also a member of Space Pride working to celebrate and support the LGBTQIA+ community in the space sector.
