I am based in South East London and work in a range of media including photography, collage, painting and stitch.  I am particularly interested in combining materials and processes to create new textures and associations, and the way in which surfaces become a repository for memory and experience.    My practice has been described as evidencing a ‘hyperawareness of surface as a repository of lived experience’.  Often taking geometric abstraction as a starting point, the surfaces of paintings and photographs are developed and disturbed by stitching and constructed textures to create ambiguous, elemental forms. One series explores circles in which they become containers for thoughts about inner and outer worlds, colours and textures, rhythm and meditation. In the photographic series, figures are combined with enhancements that both contain and emanate from their bodies.Book making is an important part of my practice and I also teach book making.
