| | | Artist profile
My work is inspired by aesthetically beautiful, typically feminine materials such as lace, net, ribbons and doilies. These are linked to concepts of feminity, childhood and security.
I am obsessed with using an organic approach, whereby the physicality of the materials is essential.

I need to manipulate materials but also need to be encapsulated, smothered and almost 'overtaken' by these.
I am captivated by the intensity of detail around us; we often ignore it as we only have time to concentrate on the essentials, never counting how many cracks are in the pavement or bricks in a wall.
I delve into this world of detail using the camera to surround myself with the beauty, intricacy and fragility of net lace etc
The images I create are like environments, an 'Alice In Wonderland' experience or a beautiful dream which can be felt or entered into.
I desire the viewer to have a close relationship with my images.
