I work across painting, drawing, mixed media, print and object-based sculpture, allowing the material and the idea to determine the form.
My practice returns repeatedly to pattern, repetition and accumulation, testing how fragility and endurance can coexist within a single work.
Much of the work is built through repeated mark-making and the slow development of surface. These dense, textural patterns invite prolonged looking, sometimes through attraction and curiosity, and at other times through a sense of unease. Meaning is not fixed but emerges through recurrence, variation and close attention.
In my sculptural work, I often use everyday objects that carry traces of touch — what might be called a human residue. Earlier or discarded works are frequently broken down and re-used, allowing one form to be consumed in the making of another.
This process of transformation runs throughout the practice, with mixed media and digital works often generated from previous pieces, extending their material life into new configurations.
Process is central to how the work develops. Rather than aiming for resolution, I am interested in what is revealed through making itself — in the slow testing of materials, limits and form. The work does not seek to explain itself fully, but to hold attention long enough for something quieter to surface.
My work has been shown in a range of gallery and non-gallery contexts, including a three-month window installation at Selfridges, London. During the lockdowns in 2021, I collaborated with Garrard of London, producing 200+ bespoke hand fans for the Fanfare Symphony jewellery launch in 2022.
Recently, I exhibited work from the Abracadabra series as part of the Coastal Currents art event.
My practice continues as an open-ended process, shaped by repetition, material testing and return. The work does not seek resolution, but remains attentive to what unfolds through making.
