I am a contemporary artist and maker living in Wales. I create sculptural installations using simple materials and found objects. I use structure, rhythm, repetition, and simplicity to explore the physical possibilities and aesthetic potential of my materials.My aesthetic is shaped by my experience of emigration to Australia in the nineteen-fifties. I spent my formative years in Canberra where my father was an architect and my mother an artist and homemaker. At that time Canberra was an emerging new city with a strong emphasis on contemporary architecture. Its relative remoteness resulted in a vibrant homegrown cultural life, including music, drama, art, and ceramics. These elements of my early life have been influential in an art practice that is grounded in three-dimensional space, materials, and surfaces.
I am a trained garden designer and have an interest in modern architecture, design, ceramics, and textiles.
I completed my MA in Fine Art at the School of Art in Aberystwyth in 2021. I am a member of the London-based contemporary arts collective, Future Conditional.
