As a Black woman from Barbados living in Scotland, my curatorial practice explores migration, memory and climate justice through the lenses of Blackness and belonging.

Through exhibitions, I create spaces that centre overlooked narratives, reclaim heritage, and use visual culture as both resistance and archive.

Considering collective connection to heritage and tradition through ceramics, my practice is an extension of the lineage of practitioners who have explored tradition through contemporary practice.
Thematically my practice has been shaped by the physical and cultural landscape I find myself in, exploring themes of identity and place through local eating and drinking cultures, focusing on narratives and rituals associated with place.
I feel that ceramics and food forge connection, cohesiveness and symbolize the intrinsically communal and collaborative aspects of both practices.
