    I discovered sculpture in 2024 and create expressive animal forms, often focusing on endangered species. My work explores fragility, protection and hope, using storytelling in clay to raise awareness and turn survival into purpose.

    My artistic practice centres on stained and painted glass, exploring light as material and metaphor. Combining traditional techniques with experimental surfaces, I create contemplative works focused on presence, energy, and human connection. Informed by spiritual practice and meditation, my art fosters transformation, inner stillness, and shared experience.

    My work is an emotional response to the coastal landscape and not a literal interpretation of what I see. The compositions that I develop are not particularly concerned with the specifics of place, but more the elemental relationship between land, sky and sea. The freedom and spontaneity of mark making and gestural paint application allow me to express a more personal image of the environment.

    I am a figurative sculptor working in the UK with gallery representation but now branching out into collaborative and site specific work. I use life casting to play along the spectrum of abstraction and figuration, often working in plaster and seeking ways of representing the human form that find beauty in the unusual or rarely appreciated. I also work in bronze both on a large and small scale.

    The first time I touched clay, it was a peaceful and comforting experience. There is nothing more grounding than working by hand with raw materials and watching as it slowly transforms into a piece of work. This started by accident. As someone who has ADHD, it’s incredibly difficult to be still, and I feel the need to constantly be doing something with my hands.
