- Bio
I’m an artist and curator working with photography and anything else I can get my hands on. I’ve recently completed a BFA in Photography Studies from Ryerson University. I work part time as an associate at Telegramme in Leslieville, and spend the rest of my time clicking shutters and sipping tea.
I am fascinated by texture and the way touch can influence the reading of an image. I work with processes and techniques that allow me to play with perceptional senses that are often overlooked; incorporating photography, drawing, fibre arts, printmaking and collage.
