The Abandoned Doll Project

As part of my AA2A residency at the University of Chester, I’m currently developing a new body of work exploring the emotional landscape of abandonment through the imagery of broken and discarded dolls. These haunting yet tender figures serve as metaphors for memory, loss, and resilience—each one a silent witness to forgotten stories. This is an ongoing project that will culminate in a group exhibition in Chester city centre in July 2025. SIGN UP to my mailing list to find out more.
