I’m a Scottish artist using my practice to show the disconnect between headspace and the physical world. In my paintings, I play with the observational nature of painting. By creating visual pathways that embody literal walkable paths but ultimately end with the plane of the painting, the viewer is then reflected back into the real world. I often paint places from my day-to-day life, imbuing my feelings of derealisation through the contrast between the natural and artificial world. I mirror this with my use of acrylic and the CMYW colour relationship, where I’m able to play with whitecast colour and pure pigment, artificial and natural light.

Recently my work has looked at the mystification of girlhood and the Scottish landscape, looking at how these have both become visual commodities in storytelling and become aspirational beyond the realms of reality.

I’m currently based at OuterSpaces Dundee, with work available at Hypha Curates
