Welcome to my re-emerging website, it is not yet finished and I hope to be adding to it over the next few months.
I am still working on the Galleries (lots of new images need adding) and Excavating Babel sections, should be more there soon, so please come back again.
More than just reflecting the natural cycles of birth and death, construction and destruction, I am interested in - 'new life from old'; how artefacts can be discarded as worthless by one society only to be sought after and conserved by another. In this my work draws upon archaeology, geology and museum artefact as sources of information and inspiration.
Printmaking as a process allows me to incorporate parts of one print into another, producing new images and concepts from fragments of old.
As parts, fragmentation, transmutations and stratification are key elements in my work I try to express these ideas through the use of texture, colour and multiple layers or surfaces. My use of texture and colour also echoes the processes of decay and dissolution, the imprints and stains of time.
