Community & Projects

Life beyond the studio.

Outside of my own practice, I'm lucky enough to work within the arts and be part of community projects, collaborations, workshops and initiatives that bring people together through making. This is the space where I'll share what I'm currently involved in and look back on the projects that have shaped me.

Jump Around Gib

Public sculpture trail

One of my most exciting projects to date launches in July 2026. I was selected as one of ten artists to paint a life-sized ape sculpture for Gibraltar's first-ever public sculpture trail, Jump Around Gib. Inspired by the beautiful beaches of Gibraltar, my design celebrates the coastline that has been such a big influence on both my life and my artwork. My sculpture will be on display at Gibraltar International Airport for one year, welcoming visitors from around the world. If you spot it on the trail, don't forget to snap a photo and tag me, I'd love to see your pictures!

A Step Into Fashion

Wearable art & fashion collaborations

In December 2025, I began exploring the intersection of art and fashion, two creative passions I'd always loved separately. I started experimenting with hand-painted and upcycled garments, debuting my first designs at the Triple 7 Fashion Show with the support of the Gibraltar Fashion Collective. Around the same time, I also completed a bespoke commission, creating custom-painted boxing boots for professional boxer Evan Motegriffo. Since then, I've showcased my work at the 2026 Eco Festival and launched my first fashion collection, Painted by Summer, featuring three original pieces at the Gibraltar Fashion Collective's Maison Renaissance showcase. This new creative direction has allowed me to bring my artwork beyond the canvas and into wearable art.

University of Gibraltar Mural

Collaborative youth mural

One of the most rewarding projects I've been involved in was leading a collaborative mural at the University of Gibraltar alongside our youth group. From the initial concept through to the final brushstroke, I guided the group in designing and painting a large-scale mural inspired by education, creativity and the local community. Seeing the project come to life was incredibly rewarding, and even more so knowing it will continue to inspire students and visitors for years to come. Projects like this remind me of the power of public art to bring people together while giving young artists the confidence to express themselves on a larger scale.

Magazine Features

Thrive & Inside Gibraltar

I've also been fortunate to have my work featured in local publications. My artwork was showcased in GFSB's Thrive magazine, and one of my favourite pieces, Barbary Einstein, was selected as the cover artwork for Inside Gibraltar magazine. Seeing my art in print and reaching a wider audience has been a real milestone in my journey as an artist.

Land Rover Showcase

Pop-up exhibition

One of the highlights of 2025 was being invited to exhibit three of my original artworks at a Land Rover pop-up showcase in Gibraltar. It was an exciting opportunity to display my work in a unique setting, introducing my art to a new audience outside of a traditional gallery space. During the event, one of my original paintings was sold, making the experience even more memorable. Opportunities like this continue to remind me how art can connect with people in unexpected places and inspire new conversations.

Debut Exhibition "DRIFT"

Solo collection

I launched my debut solo collection, DRIFT. Inspired by the sea, summer and coastal life, the exhibition marked a turning point in my career. It gave me the confidence to pursue art professionally, share my work with a wider audience, and take the next step in building my career as a full-time artist.

Art Competitions

Mario Finlayson Prize, Best Young Artist

Winning local art competitions has been an important milestone in my artistic journey. In November 2024, I was honoured to receive the Mario Finlayson Prize for Best Young Artist at the Gibraltar Cultural Services Art Competition. It was a proud moment and a meaningful recognition of my work, giving me even more motivation to continue developing my practice and sharing my art with the community.

Representing Gibraltar

Representing Gibraltar at the Miss Supranational 2024 pageant in Poland, I placed in the Top 7 out of around 70 countries.

Art Workshops

For children & adults

Alongside creating my own artwork, I also lead art workshops for both children and adults. These sessions are inspired by my signature style, encouraging participants to explore bold colours, expressive techniques and build confidence in their own creativity. Whether someone is picking up a paintbrush for the first time or looking to develop their artistic skills, my workshops are all about making art accessible, enjoyable and inspiring.
