Just to give you an idea of what I do ...

Since I can remember, I have cultivated my two passions - moving image as art practice, and mental health. I trained as a Mental Health Nurse in Switzerland and I have been working in the field in many different incarnations since 1990. I moved to England in 1998 from Italy. I finished my Fine Art BA at Central Saint Martins in 2003. My practice, until now, has consisted mainly of video, with some incursions into photography and various forms of digital media. Lately, I have become dissatisfied with the work I was making - it felt disconnected and a bit gratuitous. So I have started developing a research project with the provisional title "Frictons of Performative, Representational and Relational in Video, in relation to the conceptual and physical space of the art gallery". Yes, a bit clumsy, but at the moment it works for me.

I am a member of Critical Practice, where I coordinate the Self Representation working group. You can find out more about this cluster of artists and researchers on our wiki: http://www.criticalpracticechelsea.org/

Here is a recently published interview, so the you can see where I am coming from!
