I use a combination of art, craft and design skills to create one-off and small edition artist's books, bookworks, multiples and other text based objects. A compulsive collector: any number of ephemera, literature, textiles, found objects, materials and mediums might find their way into the pieces. I am equally comfortable with transformation, intuitive and abstract collage and assemblage, as I am with a fine and sparse presentation of ideas, concepts and stories. As a maker with a background in fine art and design, my aim is to bridge a gap, however small, between the disciplines: underpinning craft and design with an exploration of the artists’ inner life and observations of the human condition. My work assembles bits of our collective history with the events, thoughts and emotions in my life now.
