Canva Mural
For the Canva London office I painted two site specific murals, one in the kitchen and one in the main workspace. Both were designed to bring colour and energy into the studio environment. The kitchen mural is warm and playful, using bold shapes and a lively palette to brighten a shared, everyday space. In the main office I worked at a larger scale, creating movement across the wall with layered forms and flowing colour.
Both pieces were painted on site and developed in response to the layout of each room, with a focus on creating an atmosphere that feels creative, uplifting and distinctly part of the space.
Fritz-Kola Commission
Custom Painted Barrels for Fritz-Kola, Hamburg, 2025
Overview
Commissioned by Fritz Kola, this project involved creating a series of painted interventions across sculptural barrel forms in Berlin.
Brief
The aim was to develop a visually striking intervention that extended mural practice beyond flat surfaces, activating the objects within a public-facing context.
Approach
I applied an abstract visual language across curved forms, allowing the composition to wrap and shift with the geometry of each object.
The work explores how colour and form behave across three-dimensional surfaces, creating movement and variation from different viewpoints.
Execution
Each piece was painted on-site, adapting the composition to the scale, curvature, and positioning of the barrels within the space.
Outcome
The project transforms functional objects into sculptural elements, demonstrating how mural-based approaches can extend into spatial and architectural contexts.
Xero Mural Commission
Commissioned by Xero, this mural was created for their London workspace to activate the interior and integrate with the architectural layout.
The abstract composition responds to the space through flowing forms and colour, guiding movement and creating visual cohesion. The work was adapted to material conditions, sightlines, and lighting. The final piece enhances the workspace and contributes to its overall identity.
The mural was designed by me and installed on vinyl.
Canva Pillars
Custom Painted Pillars for Canva, London, 2025
Overview
Commissioned by Canva, this project involved transforming six structural pillars within their London HQ community space through a series of large-scale painted interventions.
Brief
The aim was to bring colour, energy, and a stronger sense of identity to the shared environment, creating a more engaging space for staff gatherings, events, and everyday use.
Approach
Using an abstract visual language of bold shapes, soft curves, and playful compositions, each pillar was designed to work as an individual piece while contributing to a cohesive scheme across the room. The placement of colour and form was carefully considered so the artwork shifts and reveals itself from different viewpoints, encouraging movement through the space.
Execution
Each pillar was painted on-site over two days, with designs adapted to the scale, sightlines, and surrounding architecture of the open-plan interior.
Outcome
The project turns functional architectural elements into vibrant focal points, adding personality and rhythm to the space while demonstrating how mural work can reshape everyday environments.
Industrious Mural
Mural for Industrious Co-working Space, Berlin, 2025
A mural for Industrious Co-working space, created during their opening event as live art. Featuring their classic bee logo and a custom designed colour palette.
Home Mural
Client's Home, Berlin 2026
A mural created as a commission for a private client. They wanted something bold, abstract and vibrant - to bring some colour and playfulness to the room in their home, and make it a fun place to hang out with friends.
Home Mural 2
Client's Home, Berlin 2023
A mural created as a commission for a private client. The brief was to lighten and brighten up the room, making it a warm and vibrant space to be in. The client wanted botanical features with areas of negative space, as well as intricate line work.
Wilde Moehre Festival
Wilde Moehre wanted a vibrant and fun design but in keeping with the colour palette for their three festivals, Wilde Moehre, Lusatia and Praerie so that the set design would be cohesive for all three.
The mural was 8 metres tall and was created using spray paint freehand on old shipping containers.
Self-directed Mural, North London
This abstract mural was a self-initiated project I painted just off of Mill Hill High Street in North London, created with permission from the property owner. The wall was part of an unoccupied space, and I wanted to use it as an opportunity to bring colour and movement to the street. Using bold organic shapes and a bright, balanced palette, the design was developed specifically for the scale of the space and its high street setting. I used a combination of exterior wall paint and spray paints - the piece reflects my work as a London mural artist creating large-scale abstract wall murals for public spaces.
London Residential
This mural was developed for a residential building, with the aim of bringing colour, character and a sense of warmth to an everyday street. Inspired by London neighbourhoods and the small visual moments that make them feel lived-in, the piece is designed to catch the eye from afar while still feeling friendly and at home up close. I wanted it to feel joyful without being overworked, letting colour and shape do most of the talking.
Hand-painted using durable exterior paints, the mural reflects my interest in strong graphic compositions that hold their own at scale while still feeling human and personal.
Sculptural Mural
This large-scale sculptural mural explores colour, form, and space through a series of interlocking wooden elements. It sits somewhere between a painting and a wall-based sculpture, designed to be experienced from different angles.
Each shape is cut, painted, and assembled by hand, creating a layered surface where light and shadow shift throughout the day. The mix of soft curves and geometric forms creates a sense of movement across the wall, balancing bold colour with a calm, architectural feel.
Installed directly onto the wall, the piece responds to its surroundings. Up close, the wood grain and surface texture are visible; from a distance, it reads as one cohesive composition.
The work continues my interest in pushing painting beyond a flat surface, using colour and form to create something more spatial and immersive.
Paint Jam
This was a self-directed mural I made for Paint Jam in Borehamwood. I used it as a chance to explore more abstract elements while still working with the colour palette and botanical shapes that run through my practice.
The piece focuses on layering and how shapes interact with each other. Each layer builds on the last to create movement and depth across the wall. I approached it quite intuitively, allowing the composition to develop naturally as I painted.
It was created on site and carries a sense of play and experimentation. This project reflects how I use mural spaces to push ideas forward while keeping a consistent visual language.
Penny Short Bar Mural
Mural in Penny Short bar, Berlin, 2023
The brief was to create something vibrant and fun in my signature style, with nods to the Agave plant to reflect the Mezcal selection and Mexican themed cocktails.
Eden Mall
Mural for Eden Shopping Centre, High Wycombe, UK
The brief was to create something bright and colourful and paint it on the 'selfie frame' structure at Eden Mall, High Wycombe UK. The colours and various icons were to match their new branding and create a standout design for visitors to interact with.
The frame is approx. 3m x 3m and was created using a combination of spray paint and hand painting.

Vita
I’m a London and Berlin-based artist working across large-scale murals and site-responsive installations. My practice centres on abstract, colour-led compositions that respond to architectural space, creating visually engaging interventions across public, corporate and cultural environments.
Alongside mural work, I develop paintings and sculptural approaches that extend this visual language beyond flat surfaces, exploring how colour and form interact across materials and spatial settings.
Playfulness, curiosity and experimentation sit at the core of my work, alongside an interest in creating accessible, engaging environments and contributing to a more inclusive public art landscape.
