Statement

My intention is to unite a sculptural quality with the best possible wearability.The work is about tactile surfaces, construction, colour and movement - something individual, hidden and one-off created in each piece. This leads to a diverse and stimulating range of work. Elements are a priority. I like to use a palette in which the colours of the stones and the other materials merge into one another.      A variety of techniques and processes enriches the collection.
