‘Born in Belfast, I originally exhibited nationally and internationally for 8 years, undertaking residencies in France, Poland and USA and have work in permanent and private collections from this period. I then took a break to have four children and began exhibiting again 2008. It was at this point, as the result of an Arts Council R+D award, that I began to introduce video alongside the objects and installation work in my practice. This continues to play an ever expanding role in my work.’
