Born in Jamaica to a French Mother and a Jamaican Father, her family left the island when she was four and she returned to live and work there between 2011-2014. Since then, she is exploring translocation and her mixed European-Caribbean cultural identity across the different spaces she lives and works in. By juxtaposing parallel realities through photographs, video installations and VR, elements of the ‘exotic’ are re-appropriated, and remapped to evoke the complexity of hybrid identities in the ‘new world’. She completed her Master’s in Photography at the London College of Communication in 2010.

She took a Graduate Certificate in Design and Computation Arts In 2014-2015 and she now pursuing the Individualized PhD in Arts, Education and Immersive Technology at Concordia University, Montréal, Canada. She is concerned with new forms of immersive visual storytelling and how they function for a creative expression that subverts the reality of racial, social and gender based categorization, classification and discrimination from non-Western spaces like the contemporary Caribbean and it’s global diaspora. I’m inspired by live performance, poetry and water/submersion as immersive platforms on the threshold of contemplative experience and embodied interaction, at the intersection of spaces for high art and popular entertainment. She is drawing on traditional storytelling, YouTube comments, and video installations to design VR experiences and environments where the lines between user experience and co-creation are blurred. The Post colonial experience of dual, hybrid or mixed identities is considered here as a useful framework to examine the debates around the hegemony of a ‘western’ conception of the body, currently confronted with Virtual, Augmented and Mixed realities’ hybrid experiences of presence.
