Here she discusses her work and inspiration.
I often have bizarre and vivid dreams which i write down and draw from when building concepts. If I actively go seeking inspiration, nothing particularly strikes me, so I’ll wait until a peculiar idea or thought grabs my mind and I’ll let it really unravel from there.
A lot of my work explores gender and the boundaries of femininity. Even if the concept doesn’t nessaserily start out that way - i find that it naturally seeps into everything i do. I always want to present the people i dress to feel powerful and beautiful, even if it is tinged with vulgarity or bad taste.
My aim is to contribute to the unravelling of the societal notions of beauty that have been drummed into us and make room for new voices in the industry, continue to work with up and coming designers and small businesses. I’m also currently working towards creating a creative consultancy agency that also helps equpit young creatives outside of London to forge their own paths in the creative industries.

Jody Evans
Jody Evans is a London based photographer, who graduated from Goldsmiths in 2019, specialising in fine art photography. They give us some insight into what excites them...
I
find inspiration in performance artists, sculpture artists and my own personal experiences. I love the works of Joe Spence, Louise Bourgeois and Robert Mapplethorpe... I use photography as a kind of art therapy and i find comfort in that.
Prior to coming to London to study, i was unsure about what exactly I wanted to do. I spent so much time at uni in the photography department, experimenting and testing new ideas.For my more editorial and fashion focused work, I take a lot of inspiration from small editorial magazines and I like my work to reflect a dark, punky and gothic quality to what i do. I always try to work with womxn and queer individuals as i want to represent this community. I want to have fun with it mainly and create something that myself and the people i’m working with think is interesting and cool.
I’d like to think that through my artwork I’m tackling difficult subjects, but expressing them in tactile and gentle ways.
In the future, I hope to be able to be doing photography full time, and have my own studio space where i can create work whenever I’d like, with no boundaries.
