Making form out of space. By pouring wet and liquid plaster into holes in the ground made by rat runs, I allowed the material to move, slide and fix itself into the void it finds.

Community Workshops in Barton and Tredworth, Gloucester, Summer 2022 engaging with school and youth groups responding to a mural project for a new community garden.

Plaster casts taken from the surface of the ground. The depth of these casts was caused by the severely wet winter of 2019/20 and the weight of the horses caused deep poaching of the saturated mud.

Revealing shape and form by shrouding. Naturally formed cracks in the ground during the summer months were revealed when an ancient trampoline was lifted from the ground where it had been abandoned.

Interested in the properties of peat and its preservative qualities I experimented by burying paper in the ground to record the natural composting and deterioration which occurs.

Layering of process. Photographic representation of buried organic object magnified and printed on aluminium. Reconfiguring, replicating and re-interpreting.

An area of poached earth in the field beside my house has been an abundant source of inspiration.

Sculpture made from casting a cowpat collected from the farmer's field. Making something tangible and lasting from an ephemeral object.

An exploration of material to understand the shape, form and the-between spaces.

Making Visible is a project exploring the hidden spaces, tunnels and runs made by voles in the ground.  Using synthetic material  poured into the holes and video footage I tried to capture these mysterious spaces.  

Huge rooks' nests from felled trees were salvaged and regenerated by being presented on scaffold.

Listen to them Falling comprises multiple strings of apples, wrapped in clay and suspended invisibly from the ceiling.

Apple Wheel, 2023. Plaster, metal, apple skin, earth matter. 62 x 42 cm.

This sculpture is cast in the very place from where it originated. The action of the tractor pressing its weight into the mud temporarily changes the shape and surface of the ground.
