I am a British artist and filmmaker based in Paris. For over six years, I have explored the city not just as a resident, but as a site of constant research. My background is in the academic and practical world of the arts; I hold a Master’s in the History and Philosophy of Art from the University of Kent and spent two years as a resident at Le Fresnoy - Studio national des arts contemporains. When I am not directing my own film projects or engaged in independent research, I am walking. For me, Paris is a living archive—a place where the history of the avant-garde and the images of the New Wave filmmakers still define the street corners. My goal as a guide is to help you see the city not just as a collection of monuments, but as a series of layers, textures, and stories. I offer a perspective that combines deep historical context with a filmmaker’s eye for detail.
