"The art, music and literature that I return to time and again, are pieces that touch me emotionally; if I touch just one person through my sculpture then I am satisfied" After graduating with a degree in Design and a long career in interior design I am now a full-time sculptor. I'm based in England and currently sell most of my work online. "I bring my own story to my work and I would like the viewer to bring theirs" I'm a contemporary figurative sculptor exploring identity; I believe we are a product of our family, occupation, environment and experience. Using the human body as my canvas I explore these influences; figures and faces are seen as part of a landscape or object. The various materials I use are often incongrous with one another, inviting the viewer to question what they are seeing. I'm always playing with new methods of making sculpture, currently I am working with Jesmomite. Casting the artworks myself and hand finishing them to create a varied edition where each piece has a different finished effect - a series of unique multiples. Most recently I have started to use found objects to create some unique pieces which will be for sale soon. |
