Kit is an artist and film-maker whose work is driven by an interest in interaction, participation, visual perspective and non-linear narrative expressed through a range of formats which include (but are not limited to) film, interactive installations and theatre design.

Working with long time collaborator Tom Wexler under the banner of KMA, Kit and Tom have developed a new genre of interactive work that has built them an international reputation. Their large scale works (e.g. Congregation (2010)), which seek to create emotionally resonant, impromptu public theatre by encouraging, and developing, interactions between people in public spaces using digitally-controlled projections, have been exhibited in numerous public spaces including Shanghai World Expo, Tate Britain, and Trafalgar Square.

Beginning with eng-er-land, their successful 2005 dance-theatre collaboration with choreographer Darshan Singh Bhuller, Kit and Tom have also designed for numerous contemporary dance shows including DV8's To Be Straight with You. Throughout these collaborations their work has developed and retained a distinct visual aesthetic.

The lessons learned through these excursions have led directly to the experimental visual language of the 2014 feature film The Knife that Killed Me of which Kit is a co-Director and co-Writer.

Kit and Tom have also adapted their experimental visual approach for use in large scale music events. They recently designed Paolo Nutini's UK Arena Tour (previous clients have included Prince, London Grammar and The Brit Awards).

Kit is now developing a film adaptation of Macbeth due for release in 2016. It will be a visual hybrid of film and theatre that will animate the darkness and intensity of Shakespeare's tragedy as never before, while allowing space for the extraordinary poetic force of the language to reach and touch audiences in ways that are accessible, provocative and memorable.
