The Ellipse series is inspired by the unique geological formations and elongated shadows of a tiny cove in west Cornwall.  Porth Nanven is a protected site of scientific interest.  Hundreds of ovoid granite boulders cover the beach and foreshore.  Hanging half submerged in the cliff.  From palm-sized, to over a metre, each of these granite forms was smoothed by the sea. Over 120,000 years of relentless Atlantic currents have continued to shift and redistribute them, with every high tide.

The Veer series is inspired by a season of walking in wintertime through the raw, rural landscapes of Cornwall and Wales.  Created by scoring, folding and forming sheet silver.  This elegant collection reflects the artist’s physical encounter with slanted rain, driving wind, and the untameable outdoors.

Hand-raised in copper, the design of each Fall piece is entirely process led, creating pieces simply in the spirit of making.  The carefully controlled nature of hand-raising is balanced in these works.  A swift and deliberately accidental approach to surface detailing.  In which metal scraps and silver dust (from the artist’s lemmel pot) are torch blasted onto each piece.  Painting with fire onto metal.
