Tokyo cityscape, with Hachiko and Mount Fuji

Working at the intersection of art and technology, I’m always pushing materials and composition. My townscapes and cityscapes chart buildings, architecture, power and politics, injustice, the march of technology, history, and more. I use ultra-fine drafting pens to create deliberately simplified and slightly wonky collections of buildings/features. They capture a sense of place, a slice of history, and often include a spotlight on women who should be better known.

On display for Open Studios, you’ll also see a selection of other 2D works, some including found materials and some photographs with a sense of fun. More recent drawings explore repetitive patterns/colour and life stories explored with music notation, and I’m often found playing with programming tools for generative art too. I’m always happy to discuss commissions.
