Artist Statement

I graduated from Wirral Metropolitan College with a first class BA honours degree in fine art in 2009. I continued to develop my practice at the same institute on the fellowship program for a further year. Now I'm working part time as an art technician and I spend the rest of my time developing projects, working on commissions and exhibiting.

I am an installation artist. I usually work with paper constructing sculptural pieces from it, printing on it or make books from it.

My artwork is based on repetition and is inspired by pattern and shape found in nature.

I feel compelled to work in multiples, which I use to mimic life, growth and regeneration. My work is about the processes involved along as much as the finished product.

I focus a lot of my attention on human conditions and how are actions impact on the environment. I often recycle discarded materials to produce a response.
