Hello, it's Natalie. If I was a flavour of ice cream
I'd be the experimental rainbow one that never really took off.
As I'm sure you've guessed, I'm
not a painter and I'm probably not an artist. I just make 'stuff' mostly for my own amusement, including
video, animation, text and the odd bit of performance art. Sometimes I even pick up a pencil like a real artist.
I completed a degree in Fine Art at Nottingham Trent, where I found out that the contemporary art scene really is as pretentious
and elitist as you might think it is.
Not to be boring but I'd say my work was about the low/high culture
divide, amateurism as opposed to professionalism, humour, popular culture and blah blah blah blah.
My influences
include David Lynch, Jan Svankmajer, Tony Oursler, Oriana Fox, David Blandy, Chris Cunningham, Joel Veitch, Jeff Keen, David
Shrigley, Sally O'Reilly, Andrea Fraser, Jeff Koons, Terry Gilliam, Ange Taggart, Meiro Koizumi, Sophie Calle, Doug Fishbone and
a whole bunch of other fine people and things.
I spend too much time on the internet, I'm crap at building
websites and I talk too much. Watch this space (or don't).
