Cyanotypes & Lumen Prints

Gopshop Women's Group


Audio-visual example of my Newcastle City Council Arts Team funded Artist Residency (September to December 2024) at Newcastle Bangladeshi Association edited with collected sound and images from the residency as well as original documentary photography and sound by Michelle Allen.


Cyanotypes were our (new) skill and an appropriate means to tell stories of everyday life, heritage, roots and faith, in part inspired by Begum Rokeya's writings - especially one of the earliest Utopian short novels written: Sultana's Dream (1905) which included use of solar power and working in tune with nature to mitigate disasters like floods and drought.

More examples of our works to follow ... the main piece was a collective kantha (Bangladeshi blanket with specific embroidery).

Original Art available to purchase as part of #ArtistSupportPledge


The Artist Support Pledge scheme means, I pledge to purchase a piece of art up to the value of £200 from another living artist once I have earned £1000 from my own print sales.


I am available for photographic (with and without camera!) commissions. Currently a range of my Cyanotypes are available to purchase in person at Claypath Deli, Durham City, England.


Get in touch if you'd like to own your very own BluePrint or limited edition photographic print from my various exhibition series or a past gig.




Animated Ecologies


It has been a huge pleasure to be supported by NEPN to participate with the collaborative Animated Ecologies world wide creative network.


It offers the ability to think more about sutainability and climate justice in a playful way but also learn a wide range of new skills and new ways of using my photographs to tell my stories.

This brief debut animation is inspired by my lockdown cyanotypes and walks... work in progress!
