I hope my work honours those who have gone before. I’m particularly keen to share the stories of extraordinary everyday people and those whose history may have been overlooked or omitted.
Some of my work involves collecting histories that are still in living memory, and it’s a privilege to learn about the recent past from those who lived it. I believe it’s important to tell history as it was lived, in its true colour and vibrancy.
At the moment I’m working on how we foster empathy and challenge the assumptions we often make about people in the past and present.
