I am an artist inspired by formations present in the natural world and the ways in which craft connects the maker to their environment. My textile work combines machine and hand processes and is concerned with how making can help to enhance wellbeing. Nature continues to be my main inspiration where I highlight the joy in appreciating local environments through bright, uplifting colours and bold shapes in my artwork.

Conkers from the horse chestnut tree were the main inspiration for my degree show work due to their link to childhood and commonplace presence in urban areas. Mixing media such as textiles, ceramics and laser cutting on wood I created playful hanging and sculptural pieces reflecting the changing seasons.
