About me

I make large scale sculpture for external environments. By the nature of the material I use, the sculpture is organic, tactile, visually exciting and invites interaction. I am interested in process, physical form and interacting with space. These processes and the engineering involved in fabricating large sculpture effect the work and create a new aesthetic within it.

I make all of my own work by hand using a mix of traditional and modern carving and joinery techniques. This enables me to be in total control of every aspect of my work, going with the natural changes as a piece evolves. I work almost exclusively in oak, selecting curved branches, forks and large boughs to suit each individual sculpture. The material is sustainable, durable, warming and versatile. I am as influenced by the figurative as I am the abstract and my work is sometimes humorous and surreal. I am driven by the sheer excitement of making sculpture and the desire to create beautiful things, as well as the reactions from my audience.
