Artist Statement:
I try to 'understand' the
paper through its strength and
fragility whilst staying aware
of the unknown. The secret
lies inside the paper and the
fold keeps its own memory.
Through this approach my work
becomes naturally abstract in
gathering and representing the
essence of my observations.
This way of working is
personal and is evolving all
the time.

| Your Personal Biography |
I started working with paper over 10 years ago during my degree course in Decorative Arts at Nottingham Trent University in England, but it was the discovery of an ancient Oriental technique that originally captured my imagination. This was to be the catalyst for my future exploration of various methods of paper manipulation.
My influences are wide, coming as easily from nature as the artificial world. Mostly, I am fascinated by light and shadow, transparency as well as the textures of degradation. Black and white photography and instinctive/lyrical writing also feature strongly in my work.
Sketches and photos, as well as personal recollections, are abstracted in my work to capture the essence of place and colour.
