As well as making illustrations for my essays, poetry and other creative writing, the written word frequently weaves its way into my visual projects. My artbook Seven For A Secret, which explored the Bluebeard fairytale and its feminist retellings, was a mosaic-story I wrote from four fragmented Bluebeard texts. My project 'Unsaid', which can be found on Instagram as @_un_said, takes as its poetry an ongoing and open call for anonymous submissions on the theme 'something you wished you had said'.
