welcome

My sculptural work reflects my deep rooted interest in the connection between people and nature. I am particularly interested in the way humans are able to make small but long lasting modifications to natural systems and environments, often without realising it. Our interaction with our world also led me to question the way we design and construct the environment around us.

I enjoy using natural materials such as timber and stone. These materials display a subtle history, or an insight into their past, such as the shell fragments in limestone or the growth rings of a tree. I am also inspired by the natural processes of growth and decay.

The process of creating sculpture is as important to me as the finished piece. I often start with just an idea which takes further form and direction whilst working on a piece. The actual process of sculpting and carving, transforms the original idea into a complete form which is often like some sort of discussion between the material, myself and the environment in which the piece is created.
