My creative practice focuses on sculpture and installations using a range of diverse materials from metal to paper.

Inspiration flows from physical and psychological journeys and connections.

I have been absorbed by the form of the möbius loop, a symbol of infinity, which, despite appearances only has one navigable surface.

“I want to show how our interpretation of experiences and the recounting of them may not be the truth by distorting the solid sculptural form of the möbius through light and projection reflecting the intangible and shifting nature of memories.”

“While I prefer working on a large scale, the Covid 19 pandemic has restricted my final work to a small scale maquette which I have photographed in a makeshift studio space but more positively has enabled me to develop other ways of communicating these ideas by exploring the nature of sculpture through shadows and the layering of images.”

“The Telling of Time is a film representation of the illustrations I have drawn from various museums and galleries. The drawings were published in this book to give a visual and physical understanding of my work. The sketches were drawn digitally by using an iPad. My work is a mixture of analogue and digital work that is captured by visiting places of interest in regards to the world around us.”

As a Material based artist I draw inspiration from installation artists and fashion designers which has inspired me to work with a variety of materials and techniques such as embroidery and sewing.

At current, my practice involves working with living materials such as flowers - the way in which the material changes everyday due to their process of decay is something as an artist I found fascinating, however my material was not immortal which created problems within my practice which lead me to using tissue paper to recreate the floral forms.

This has led me to work three dimensionally gaining skills working with a new material which is as delicate and light as the real thing, through my work I like to communicate between the fine line of what we know and what we think we know which makes for the temporary perspective.

My artwork was restricted due to lockdown which directed me to paint more and challenge my painting ability.

My artwork was heading towards a painting which grew into a geometric sculpture but, now the tides have turned!

Lockdown has happened which means my paintings can’t be sculpture, which made me think - if my paintings can’t turn into a magnificent sculptural butterfly, thus the painting needs to look the bees knees!

Thankfully I have been able to make my work from home without much adjustment.

My work is all about the Process of making and capture of Trace, the physical act of making is I feel paramount to the integrity of my work.

By depersonalizing my living space, I am able to show my work as near to my original intention “pre lockdown” as possible.

What I have gained from this enforced alternative, is the knowledge that my drive and passion for my work is all that matters as all the rest is just stuff and can be worked around.

Therefore, giving me a greater sense of achievement.

The images show the physical capturing of Trace by the action of reconstructing the deconstructed papers used and accumulated over the course of my Studies.

My fascination with the folds and creases in material has inspired my work.

This led me to question the clothing we wear, which I discovered shows identity and existence of us as humans. It’s how we recognise and distinguish others which has directed me to investigate human presence.

My work has developed and become extremely personal to myself and through my pieces I am focusing on my family members in my household and their identities.

The use of the digital drawings has allowed me to recreate a mirror image. In everyday life clothes are usually dismissed, this is the reason I have included my paintings in the digital drawings because I was fascinated by the way in which painting creates a sense of high class and value which holds importance to the clothes I am concentrating on.

It allows me to enhance them towards the viewers.
