My Creative Research Gallery is a living space for art, technology, culture, and learning.
The gallery brings together my practice-based doctoral research and wider creative work across photography, poetry, sound, and AI-assisted digital art.
My practice centres on Black British female lived experience while remaining open, accessible, and grounded in care and neurodivergent ways of working.
Throughout this research period, I apply affective recomposition as a human-led, AI-assisted visual ethnographic approach grounded in Black methodologies.

“We Are the Archive. We Are the Data. We Are the Designers.”
