Biography

I previously ran a responsive space called b.Dewitt gallery which worked alongside and in conversation with artists whose practice engaged with social and political considerations. Through supporting artistic practice, we aimed to raise the international profile and networks of the artists that we worked with, acting as (an) agency, curatorial body, and gallerist through conducting temporary exhibitions and contextual programmes in borrowed locations.

Since graduating from the MRes Art: Theory and Philosophy in 2016, the course provided me with a space to critically engage both in, and with, my identity and social position. Upon its completion I have applied the personal nature and themes around my final dissertation to develop a space that is both authentic in its practice as well as discursive in its thematics.
