Tell us a little bit about yourself?
I’m a current Fine Art student at Loughborough University in my final year. My practice explores the concept of sensory communication through a continuous process of paper cutting. The work is made from tiny pieces of spike-like paper which are cut and hand painted with watercolours to achieve a vibrant colour palette. The overall aim with my artwork is to share a detailed representation of molecular forms while exploring illusion as a way of expressing depth of colour and vibrancy.
Could you tell us about your overall experience participating in The Hari Art Prize?
Participating in The Hari Art Prize has been amazing. The experience of exhibiting my work in London has been so exciting for a newly emerging artist and meeting loads of new people within the art world has been so interesting. As a young artist, I have felt the support with getting my work out in the world for others to see has been wonderful.
Where did you hear about the competition?
I heard about The Hari Art Prize through an email with my University, showcasing what events and competitions are available to us. I felt it was important to enter to give me new experiences to set me up for when I leave University.
