Rachel makes paintings that evoke a feeling around a sound or experience of place. Her areas of practice are influenced by architectural forms, perception of space and sound . She works with a diverse range of mediums using painting, sound recording and photographic processes. Through creating work she intends to harness meaning and resonance which in turn invites the viewer to make their own connection to it. A UK based artist, she trained in both three dimensional design and fine art at Manchester and Leeds Arts Universities. This multi disciplinary approach provides a lens through which to view and reflect upon themes of different states of being and how these reflections can be expressed visually and sonically. She has collaborated with organisations such as The National Trust and her work is held in private collections in the UK, USA, Australia & Europe.
