KINGSTON DEGREE SHOW (2021)
This was the final showing of my work from my MA course at Kingston. It was an exciting event largely because most of our course had been online, due to Covid-19. It took place at a venue called "Kachette" in Shoreditch. Due to a high number of the students being international, a lot of them returned to their home countries, leaving twenty students exhibiting out of the fifty-two students. The whole show was planned and organised by the students; you can see my contribution in my work experience section. It was great to be able to show my work in front of a public and professional audience.

YOUNG ARTISTS IN SUFFOLK (FLUX) EXHIBITION (2021)
The YAIS instagram team reached out to me to participate in their digital show "FLUX". This was an exhibition with the theme 'journeys', in which this concept could be interpreted in any way the creator saw relevant. I used previous pieces from my Masters, as I felt my practice was a journey of improvement in skills and knowledge, along with being a continued learning experience throughout the pandemic. These images show my feature.

CRITICAL TEXT SHOW (2021)
These are images from 'The Critical Text Show', a part of my Critical Text project, at Kingston University. This was a virtual show hosted by my course, Kingston University and The Stanley Picker Gallery. I was part of the social media team (of which you can see my individual contribution in my work experience section). This show was online due to the Covid-19 pandemic. These images are my instagram features for the show.

THE SOCIAL DISTANCE ART PROJECT (TSDAP) (2020)
The Social Distance Art Project, is a project that some of my fellow York St John students set up in response to the cancellation of our degree shows due to coronavirus. The project aimed to showcase and give a platform to all final year creative students across the country, showing their work, drawing attention from the industry. They have an instagram and website full of content and artistic inspiration; I am featured in both.

ART AESTHETICA (2020)
In 2020, the world was hit by the Covid-19 pandemic resulting in many degree shows being cancelled. At York St John, we were lucky to have the opportunity to be featured on the Art Aesthetica magazine website and within their physical magazine pages of their May/June edition. They picked a small selection of students' images to be in their magazine. I was fortunate enough to have a feature within the pages. Every student was showcased online. This was a great alternative for the degree show, although missing the live show was still a massive disappointment.
