She currently has a solo show running at the Mussel Inn Gallery in Glasgow, ‘Deep’.  It’ will be running till May 5th and can be found at this map.

This is what she had to say about ‘Deep’:

“What I can say is that photography gives me a unique view of the world. It enables me to capture beauty and abstract moments that can often go unnoticed; it is a means of satisfying my desire for creative expression and experimentation.

‘Deep’ is the result of that desire, it is a project that began with underwater photography allowing me the opportunity to explore an environment that I was unfamiliar with, and then became more of an exploration of those qualities associated with that environment. Movement, a poised weightlessness and a calm sense of space are what ultimately drove the resulting work and which translate so well to the still image.”
