She previously led experimental arts project TOPHTUSK FRINGE and TUSK NORTH, and in November 2022, she received the Paul Hamlyn Foundation #AwardsForArtists, in recognition of her contribution to music composition. Her music has recently been described as “genuinely ground-breaking” (London Jazz News, 2022) and “high-velocity sonic surrealism” (4*, The Guardian, 2022). Recent release BOWN (Heat Crimes) charted no. 6 in The Wire and no. 10 in The Quietus’ best albums of 2023 and was album of the week in The Quietus. Boomkat described it as “harnessing extreme technical prowess – phenomenal stuff.”
