about the work
‘My work explores different possibilities at different times, often evoking a sense of riffed nostalgia, slippage and mystery; I reference my everyday landscape and built environment, whether that be digital or physical. I am also interested in the dual, ‘the jewel and the object’, ‘jewellery and the other’ where I combine other artistic endeavours into the realm of jewellery such as printmaking, darkroom photography, sculpture, painting and holography.’
