Elle is a Fine Artist with a First Class honours degree from The University of Southampton, UK. Her work has been selected to be exhibited at The Royal West of England Academy, and has been showcased and sold in the UK and The Netherlands to private and corporate clients. Before relocating to Dubai in 2014, she was a resident at Chapel Arts Studios, Andover, UK.

Elle works across disciplines, encompassing a range of media including paint, photography, video, sculpture and installation. Her work is about identifying, capturing, revealing and making transparent the elements of experience, influence and interconnections in the creative journey. Elle's inspiration is drawn from lifecycles and how all things are linked and interconnected. The elements of tension are created through entropy and exaggerated through use of fragile forms. A measure of disorder exists in her work in the form of deterioration and decomposition. Materials have undergone some degree of transformation or dramatic change in appearance.

A current theme in her work is Carbonisation. Carbonisation results in a transformation of an object to “become” a carbonized facsimile of the original “being” and yet simultaneously challenges the spectator with properties that transcend the captured images outside previous physical experience. This perspective makes you explore life and death and its vulnerability.

Personal History

Elle was born in Holland, and has a background in interior design and has spent over 20 years living in extremes of climate and culture from the deserts of the Middle-East to the arctic of Far Eastern Russia. This has provided her with many ideas and inspirations to further develop her creative identity.
