I am currently studying Fine Art at De Montfort University, my current practice involves looking at the human body and finding ways we can use our body as a material to create art work. I believe I specialise in printmaking the most as its always something I am drawn to when it comes to creating art work, especially the work I am doing at the moment. I am experimenting with different materials and printing my body onto different materials, really looking and examining all the detailed marks its printed.

Exhibitions:
28th March – 9th April: I took part in the De Montfort University second year art exhibition. The exhibition was called .TWO. It was an exhibition that took place in the design wing atrium in the University. The exhibition had an opening night on the 28th March and all the art work stayed up until 9th April. There was a combination of different art work such as print, photography, sculpture and painting. I was apart of the committee for this exhibition helping put everyone’s art work up, making sure that the gallery space looked professional and inviting for the audience.
3rd March – 5th March: I also displayed some work in ‘The Ubiquitous Individual’ exhibition that took place at the Two Queens Gallery in Leicester. This exhibition was ran by a group of second year students who fundraised money to hire out the space for the exhibition.
Publications:
Print Edition: In the first term I also did a Print Edition where all the print students had to create this edition, where we had to create a magazine, book, box, folder with one piece of our print work in it. We decided to go for an A3 box to compromise with everyone as some people created bigger scale work whereas some people created smaller work. We had to order around 30 boxes as every print student was given a box also some of the print lecturers and I think one got put up for auction. We then had to create our own 35 plus prints so we could put one piece of our artwork into each box.
Other Achievements:
Not only was I apart of the committee for the exhibition .TWO. however I am also apart of the fine art society, me and three other students decided to get the fine art society back up and running. My role within the society is being the health and safety officer, so making sure risk assessments are being done and making sure no one gets hurt or becomes ill whenever we do anything outside of University. After having a tough first year due to covid we thought that having this society was a nice way to bring everyone together and do things together outside of University. For example we are wanting to do field trips where we go and visit exhibitions across the UK and do fun art activities all together.
