Singing and instrumental workshops in community settings. For most of human history, singing and group music-making has been a normal and enriching part of everyday life, rather than a specialised activity for an elite few. I enjoy re-connecting people to the pleasure of singing and making music in a group. I have over 15 years' experience of running workshops and courses in a range of contexts, including services for people with mental health needs, older people, refugees and asylum-seekers, as well as workplaces, adult education and drop-in groups open to anyone.

My practice explores the mysterious, unfathomable and supernatural through multi-artform events and exhibitions of paintings and sculptures. I am particularly interested in the relationships between people, and between people and their environment, and how these are mediated by beliefs and supernatural or spiritual experiences.

My outdoor events are inspired by religious rites from various traditions, and aim to involve the audience as participants as much as possible, drawing them into a liminal space from where they can re-evaluate the Present and re-invent the Future.

In this context I undertake commissions to help design alternative weddings, namings, funerals and other sacred ceremonies.
