April 25th, 2015Moiré brooch Series 2013-Current
April 22nd, 2015The inherent optical effect created by the interaction of the repetitive lines adds an element of potentiality to each brooch on it own, as well as to the group when viewed as a whole.
Artist statement 2009
March 4th, 2010For an artist, part of the creative process is bringing forth something from nothing, ideas develop, a drawn line closes and becomes a shape, and through the manipulation of space, that shape becomes a form.
My current practice involves an investigation into this development of form and my inspiration is drawn from a fascination with the fundamental geometric patterns that are found within nature’s building blocks; like growth in nature my objects are created using repeated elements.
Artist Statement 2008
March 4th, 2009The idea that making is a form of meditation is an integral part of my practice, repetitive processes are an essential part of crafting fine small scale works, and once the monotony is overcome, the performance of these rhythmic actions becomes a mesmerising process. I incorporate this repetitive rhythm into the objects that I make using line and pattern, often with playful surprising outcomes.
The Expansion and Contraction Series
March 4th, 2009The Expansion & Contraction Series is a materialisation of the artist’s meditations on the evolution of breath.
