My practice is slow, and intertwined with my everyday living. Incorporating area mappings of found things and the experiences I have around these. I am innately connected to the outside world around me. I see the landscape’s poetry before me and run with it, its a trigger that gets things firing. I am interested in using found materials that connect to the places I  frequently visit. 

With this, I work with the sounds around my locality, recognising and noting changes in seasons, meteorology and materials. I pick up sticks, twigs, a stone, and it begins to form a conversation. 

Sketches and drawing are part of the process and occasionally a drawing will find its way through to the finish. 

With all this, my senses are used to feel my way, noting as I become more involved.  Its a way of collaborating with whats around me. This is how the Metal Bowl Soundings 2025 came about incorporating the sounds I collected over the year and it turning the bowl which had been laying dormant in the garden into a sound piece that could be leaned into whispering into the listeners ear relating its story. Its a very close relationship with things.
