My practice is dominated by material and object, by the manifestation of idea through that material and my personal response to the experience of making that object. I am interested in the notion of perfection and much of my work refers back to the human body in its ‘perfect variety’.

Oyster shells represent a form of perfection that is borne of nature and hence to even attempt duplication requires an act of power on the part of the maker. I hope to reflect the isolation that is the consequence of the discipline required to achieve what is ultimately an unreality.
