'I work in response to my surroundings, the ordinary and everyday of urban life, where I find an accidental poetry that is often overlooked.

I take an experimental approach to ceramic processes and materials to create objects with surfaces that apparently carry the traces of time or reflect the colours and textures of neglect.

My hope is to translate some of what I see and to allow others to share the quiet beauty I find in these humble things.
