STATEMENT
I am interested in the narrative quality of objects. While form drives the narrative, it’s material that tells the story. I’ve always been fascinated by the language of material, particularly in looking at the same form in a range of mediums. The viewer sees the form radically different depending on how it is presented. As a sculptor I consider light, shadow and color as equals to form and this for me is an endless well of inspiration. My work is autobiographical, each body of work represents an important chapter in my life.
