Description
From an early age I have been fascinated with art and the life of artists in whatever form they create. To live alongside society it seems, whist being within it.
Sculpture and printmaking drew mw in from the get go as practises which are very guided by process. Beginning with an idea, the idea becomes a drawing, the drawing evolves into a plan, the plan is taken into the artwork and becomes what it becomes. I have always loved this process and how the work seems to take on a life or path of its own. It starts to show you parts of itself and you, as the maker, become lead by the work itself. There's a bit of excitement in that.
Currently I am making whales, swimming men, flying parrots and a few boats. These express my interest in escapism and the entering of foreign worlds. I enjoy layering narratives and a bit of kitch too!
