She only graduated last year from her MA Course in Illustration at London’s Central St. Martins College, but since then her jaw-dropping creations have been snapped up by fashion’s finest, with commissions from the likes of Holly Fulton, E. Tautz and AnOther Magazine for Chanel – as well as being featured in Nick Knight’s prestigious Showstudiowebsite. She is inspired by the work of fine artists and counts Hannah Hoch, Marlene Dumas, RB Kitaj, and John Stezaker as her main influences.

FROM THE FRENCH: COLLER, TO GLUE.




A collage is a work of formal art, primarily in the visual arts, made from an assemblage of different forms, thus creating a new whole.

A collage may include newspaper clippings, ribbons, bits of colored or hand-made papers, portions of other artwork,photographs and other found objects, glued to a piece of paper or canvas.

The origins of collage can be traced back hundreds of years, but this technique made a dramatic reappearance in the early 20th century as an art form of novelty.

This term was coined by both Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso in the beginning of the 20th century when collage became a distinctive part of modern art.
