My Behind the Scenes articles describe step by step the process of discernment, coordination, delivery and post-production of my various services as a visual practitioner, in the form of case studies of several highlighted projects. In my earlier Visual Blog series I take readers along on my learning journey of my first year of working as an independent visual facilitator and graphic recorder, starting out as a sole trader and creative entrepreneur in the UK.
When traveling or living abroad I have always chronicled my experiences. This has resulted in a collection of travel essays spanning nine years and five different countries. My last travel series, ‘The Road to Peace is Paved with Teacups’, narrates my assimilation process into Northern Irish culture and contemporary context. Through monthly essays I reflected on various chapters of (Northern) Irish history and mythology, and how I saw those intersecting with my own country’s legacy.
