I work with repurposed materials and techniques alien to traditional repertoire. I seek to employ these in ways that change the typical understanding of arts/crafts and the making process. By challenging how people view materials and their purpose, I aim to give people a new way of experiencing them as new forms.
By creating objects and images in this way, I give them an altered life and meaning that comments on personal and universal experiences. Over time, I have used plastic milk bottles and ethernet cables.
Currently, I am focusing on repurposing denim jeans. Using a photomontage technique, I am offering a series of limited prints produced on heavy-duty cotton rag paper.
My work is an exercise/process in gathering ideas across time, place, memory, and identity to bring new interpretations and insight into issues.
I am a member of Red Herring Studios, Portslade, West Sussex, United Kingdom.
