Her work has been published extensively and has featured in The Telegraph, The Guardian, Tank, Contemporary Visual Arts, Time Out London/New York, Art Monthly, European Photography, The Architects Journal, The Observer, The Irish Times and The New York Times.
She is renowned for her richly coloured photographs of table top reconstructions of interiors and environments which are unsettling in their construction and visual conundrums
They ask questions about truth, reality, fiction and memory, offering the viewer a humorous but twisted take on the world in which they are invited to psychologically unravel.
“The works that I make explore the blurred line between drawing, painting and photography, the hand-made and the photographic. They hang in the mind simultaneously as both believable fictions, and total fabrications capturing the in-between moments where the process of making itself is exposed”
