"The exploration, transformation and combination of materials has always been a crucial part of my practice. Growing up in the countryside, I have always been drawn to nature to source the materials I work with. From this relationship, I have developed my ongoing study and love of wood. I look to showcase the wood’s intrinsic natural properties adding materials and finishes as a counterbalance and contrast. My aim as an artist is to guide viewers back to these natural resources, and thus, back to the meditative powers of nature that we tap into when confronted by it. But also, to explore and question its evolving interaction with human interference."
