Professional title:

Artist / Designer / Flâneuse

What do you do?

I tell stories visually of things that represent the underbelly of the archive. Or just draw my hands holding my iphone.

Why?

I make art because I care about history, fiction and narrative. Also, I never get bored. Except when boredom is the thing I'm pursuing. On the client side of things I like designing /visualizing what's in other people's heads and making it exist.

What should we read?

On Beauty, by Zadie Smith
