About works / performance

My sculptures and installations utilise an extensive range of craft and hardware materials, including silicone, expanding foam, fake fur, various resins and rice paper. With these i  have created a collection of zoological, botanical and geological specimens, which rather than factually representing natural history, take a more playful, decorative approach.
