About
profile
I have been creating music and sound design for theatre, contemporary dance & film for 20 years, working with companies such as Headlong, Old Vic Productions, Tiata Fahodzi, House of Absolute, Javaad Alipoor Company & Fabula Collective. My first instrument is the cello and I use this extensively in my work, often processing & combining it with electronics. More recently I have been concentrating on my solo output as performance & recording under my own name.
My work has been described as “electro-orchestral drone-scapes of, by turns, gauzy intimacy and soaring grandeur” Mojo, “highly evocative work of the otherworldly transforms the recognisable into something mysterious, even on occasion, the supernatural” Monolith Cocktail.
Being of mixed British/Indian ethnicity & recently diagnosed with epilepsy these experiences inform & guide and inform my practice, exploring themes of otherness and fragility.
