Project summary:

 

In concept as well as physical methodology, my current practice focuses on how to represent, in a tangible way, the transformation and changing qualities of people’s emotions and relationships. Recently, I have focused more on processes of making and the notion that one may be transformed or scared by relationships.  At their most successful, my sculptures become a testament to the history of their creation with the trials and successes embedded on their surface. 

 

Recent work centres around a single form: the ‘flute’.  It is an object in constant tension: on the one hand, in perfect balance with itself, on the other, perched on impossibly small bases, raised on precarious concrete plinths or balancing on top of each other. It simultaneously evokes the fragility of the body and the mind, the tenuous state that we live in, seemingly in balance with the world and ourselves, but precarious and solitary.
