Being a sculptor who uses found objects, all the objects I use in my work have been designed by other people. So I'm tweaking them in some way by squashing them or throwing them off cliffs!

Place

Nov 07, 2020

My work has threads of ideas from all over the place. I try to crystallise them in something simple and direct that the viewer can then take where they want.
