I run an extra curricular club ‘Art in the Garden’ at Campsbourne Primary School in Hornsey, North London. It takes place in the school’s garden. I founded the club in 2018 and currently run four sessions a week for around 40 children from Year 1 – 6.
Outdoor sessions for families in North London’s Alexandra Park – ‘Ally Pally’. Hosted by the Friends of Alexandra Park.

‘Birth Songs’
Shown at Rich Mix, London as part of a group exhibition organised by Amnesty London, January 2014. The exhibition focussed on maternal, HIV and LGBT rights.
This painting is made entirely through the act of writing. Lyrics have been taken from songs playing just before and just after the birth of my daughter at 8.25pm on 11 May 2013, layering up over one another to form the landscape of the painting.
The ipod was on shuffle; these were the songs that happened to be playing at the time. On painting the words, I remind myself of both the sense of hope and of anticipation on the imminent arrival of my newborn. And how what a universal experience to humanity this is, across time and place.
I am very thankful for the health of my baby and myself following her birth. Every year there are 3 million mothers who will see their babies die in the first month of their life. And every year 1/2 million babies won’t get to meet their mothers when they are born.
I know you by heart / Night bird / You are the everything / Sweet Lullaby / Until the end of the world / Keep on trying / Let it go / I love you, I love you, like never before / Hymn to her / Breathe a little deeper / Deep forest / Into my arms / Meadowlark / Hallelujah / the songbird keeps singing / Will you be there in the end?
Archbishop’s Park Summer Festival, 2012
This work is a painting of Archbishop’s Park using words.
To create a community made piece for use in the planned new Rainbird Cafe for the park, I set up a stall at the 2012 Summer festival and asked people to contribute to a painting made of the following questions, by writing in their own responses;
What does the park sound like?
What doe the park smell like?
What does the park taste like?
What does the park look like?
What does the park feel like?
Archbishop’s park is tucked in near the river in London’s SE1 www.lambeth.gov.uk/places/archbishops-park
