My work is inspired by land and sea and how human life has been woven into these environments throughout history. Fragments are combined to tell stories of the woodlander, the beachcomber, the mudlarks and the artisans. Miniature found objects and natural forms are given centre stage, like relics in a museum. I aim to create my own evolving collection of curiosities, amulets for the modern age.
