“The assemblage sculptures incorporate found objects, fibre, fabric, glass, Perspex, beads and resin; and draw the viewer in to explore them with Alice-like wonder.”

I work with odd spaces caught just outside ‘real’ existence, often glimpsed, intangible yet with significance, seen and simultaneously unseen. My works are depictions of these worlds, often based on surreal narratives after those portrayed by Kahlo, Fini and Dali, dealing with the metaphysical properties of objects and nature. I use mixed media in a bricolage form – combining elements and symbols that retain some of their meaning from our world, juxtaposed with new meaning in the worlds I create. The assemblage sculptures incorporate found objects, fibre, fabric, glass, Perspex, beads and resin; and draw the viewer in to explore them with Alice-like wonder.
