Profile Information:

What I do:: Performance Artist. Graduated from University South Wales, MA (Dist.) in Drama, and London Metropolitan, BA (Hons) in Performing Arts.
A little more about me:: I am an emerging performance artist originally from Cymer in the Upper Afan Valley in Port Talbot. My interest of the Arts started from an early age and I studied Performing Arts at both college in Gorseinon and university in London. Most recently, I graduated from the University of South Wales with a Master of Arts (Dist.) in Drama. Over the last year I have been exploring the type of artist that I want to be. I take an autobiographical approach to most of my work and increasingly use multi-media in my performances. I am interested in themes of identity, sexuality and gender. Having had a training in contemporary styles of dance, I have a particular interest in using the body as a means to create meaning and drama. My vision is to create unique experimental and forward thinking performance that provokes and encourages change in a socio-political context.
