I get very excited over
finding treasures on the floor from the beach to the skip, 
then being able to manipulate these into varying forms playing with colour and texture.
This often includes a lot of melting and hammering,
​I then merge contrasting finishes together wanting to combine severity and delicacy.

Nothing seems fitting: 2019, Fossilised bone from Tallinn beach, Estonia: Old plastic sunglass lenses, Red wood. 

Progression, journeys and eventual transformation. The cycle of an object, of raw, natural materials into its state of usage until finally ending up back in the ground has long captured my interest and provided me with inspiration. The prospect of being able to create an object that could potentially be around for hundreds of years excites me. Finding a fascination with the longevity of metal, knowing that many of my pieces will out live me.
