About
the Artist
Amongst other things my sculpture reflects my interest in the casting
process. I primarily work with the figure.
My figures often bear scars and remnants of the process, which I
use to act as a metaphor for
psychological states as well as the wider human condition.
I run my own bronze casting foundry in Suffolk, casting my own work,
commissions and the work of other
sculptors. I am also the co founder of The US UK Iron pour residency
and exchange programme and founder
of the Yew Tree Farm Artists Studios. I have exhibited widely in
Europe, the UK and the USA.
