Sculptural and jewellery works focused on capturing and exploring natural forms.
my work
My work is currently focused on sculpture and jewellery. With a practice that is rooted in nature, both of these expressions attempt to create intersectional works that combines and distills organic forms to create lasting beauty.
Jewellery
I have a deep love of jewellery as a practical and everyday artform. Inspired by my frequent forays into the wild I look to create wearable nature. Predominantly working with copper, organics, and steel, whilst employing processes that retain the original forms within the work I seek a creative intersection where permanent materials contrast with the fleeting and often unseen beauty of organic forms.

Sculpture
My sculptural work focuses on capturing form, looking to create pieces that are rooted in the contrast of materials. Deeply inspired by the work of Barbara Hepworth, Henry Moore, and Simon Cooley, I seek to reconcile the abstraction of shape with natural forms to create enduring beauty.

About me
I am an Atelier trained multi disciplinary artist with a passion for sculptural and wearable works.
Over the last 5 years I've primarily been interested with exploring natural forms and the transition from those forms into inorganic materials.
My work is held in private collections in the UK, Europe, and USA.
