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.
This process reframes unresolved visual material through emotion, abstraction, and lived experience, positioning creative practice as a site of cultural knowledge production rather than aesthetic output alone.
This space brings together creative research, cultural practice, and public learning without hierarchy or gatekeeping.
This is not a portfolio in the traditional sense.
It is a curated research space where representation, reflection, and creative practice meet.
This is a space for looking, listening, thinking, and learning—at your own pace.
