Hello. I’m a human multi-disciplinary artist and writer called Chloë
I grew up in a slender house in the south of England with my parents and a cat named after the philosopher Zeno. I now live near Galway City in the west of Ireland.
My first ‘improper job’ was on the design desk at The Idler. A concept magazine I founded is held in the Tate and RCA libraries and I have won awards and funding for my artistic research, the most recent of which being a residency at Greywood Arts in Cork.
For as long as I can remember, I have used writing, illustration and photography to document and explore the defining experiences of my life.
As a ‘geriatric millennial’ I share a common obsession with technology and identity. I write about relationships and view the domestic as a microcosm of society.
I spent a decade writing regular features, interviews and columns for the local press in Lewes and Brighton. I am attracted to things that seem strange or uncanny, and tend to fuse the personal with the political.
A lifelong lover of food, I worked various front of house roles in the City of London during my student years and have since hosted supper clubs, worked as PRO of an annual food festival and founded Cook the Books, a long-running book club and event series.
As a member of the UK Guild of Food Writers I have judged at their annual awards. My food journalism and photography have been published by the likes of Great British Chefs, Mollie Makes, Buzzfeed, Metro and Vegan Living.
This website is the best place to find my news but I am also on Instagram and Substack.
Please contact me to join my online writing rooms or to express interest in forthcoming workshops.
