I am a metalsmith, making contemplative sculptural objects. My work makes constant reference to nature whether intentional or otherwise. I work with both the random and the planned, valuing the process and the ideas that emanate from the process. The work evolves while in my hands and I am often surprised by the results, sometimes only understanding the origin when the work is complete. I am comfortable with my chosen material, metal, but relish the excitement that the introduction of other materials brings. I envisage these contemplative sculptures in domestic settings, gallery spaces, public art situations and architectural interiors and exteriors.
