Theatre Set designer Designing for site-specific locations Costume designer Prop sourcing and prop making Mask making

I am a recent BA theatre design graduate, I am a costume and set designer and enjoy creating my set and costumes with recycled materials. I am inspired by modern art which allows me to create conceptual and playful spaces. I am also very interested in immersive theatre. I have picked up skills within creating a set including set construction, scenic painting, prop sourcing and making. I am interested in festival set-up and creating sets amongst nature. I am also a tattoo artist in my spare time with my designs inspired by set design, architecture and nature.
