As an artist my practice is driven by the desire to create 3-dimensional forms and sculptural surfaces. I initially develop my ideas through experimentation with different techniques and processes which are later developed and articulated into structural outcomes. My practice combines in depth research with process-led ideas that are strongly influenced by the fibres and materials I work with. I am fascinated by the ability to transform a 2-dimensional fibre into a 3-dimensional form through experimentation with innovative self-developed processes. My background in knit textiles underpins my practice and my work often combines fabric manipulation and construction techniques alongside domestic and dubied machine knitting. I take an experimental approach by engaging with natural materials, traditional techniques and modern processes. These elements come together to create 3-dimensional structural work that is tactile and malleable; inspired by pushing the boundaries of fibre, form and process.
