About
I am an artist, writer and yoga teacher. I hold a Professorship from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, where I work as an Athenaeum Research Fellow. When I am not following Freud, Lacan and Marx’s footsteps with my camera, or creating one-to-one durational performance works, I teach postgraduate students at Transart Institute and Köln International School of Design. I start my day practicing yoga and taking one photograph at 7am.

Writing
My writing emerges from my practice as an artist. I have written on the seductive qualities of Philippe Stack’s Juicy Salif, co-edited a collection of essays titled ‘Madness, Women and the Power of Art’ to which I contributed a work, written with Eleanor Bowen. I completed a monograph entitled 'Make Me Yours: How Art Seduces', and have written on psychoanalysis, inter semiotic translation, peace building and performance making.

Photography
Today, 7am
No two mornings are same. When I practice yoga before 8, I take a photograph, noticing where the mind takes me and what subtle changes occur.
