I’m Uma, a disabled artist, writer, and award winning game designer interested in animals, horror, and queer feminist literature. Everything I make is about some combination of love, grief, hallucination, and an excess of joy. With Belladonna Paloma I make video games about the divine and occult providence of transfemme existence.
Recent projects include The Speculative Dismemberment of Agent Leon Kennedy (Market Gallery, Glasgow, 2022), Hinterlands (Baltic, Gateshead, 2022), The Joy of Destruction (Backlit, Nottingham, 2023), Elan Vitale (Container Magazine, Bristol, 2023). Uma is currently working on The Well of Sickness Shimmering, a video game about holy wells made with Bella Paloma, and due to launch at the 2023 Overkill festival in the Netherlands.
