Studio Practice

My journey as a sculptor is defined by the continuous evolution of an artistic practice spanning more than 35 years. My studio has long served as a sanctuary for thoughtful experimentation, a dedicated space where countless foundational works have been developed away from the public eye. Drawing rich inspiration from the surrounding North Norfolk landscape, my sculpture reflects an ongoing, personal exploration into the complex intersection of nature, emotion and form.

My sculptures explore themes of imperfection, transition, and emotional resonance. I am deeply inspired by the organic shapes and raw textures found in natural forms, as well as the visceral experience of the rugged, windswept East Coast where I live and work. Through my practice, I endeavour to capture the subtle beauty that exists within moments of change. Whether these transitions occur between physical states, shifting environments, or evolving emotional landscapes, my work seeks to reveal the profound significance embedded in the ephemeral.

Whether developed as intimate personal projects or large-scale international commissions, my sculptures have found meaningful homes across the globe. My goal is to create work that establishes an immediate visual resonance, yet invites quiet, sustained reflection, offering each viewer a space to discover their own layered meanings. I continually strive to push the boundaries of my medium and challenge conventional perceptions. By honouring the beauty of transience and difference, I seek to capture the intangible essence of our shared humanity in a way that remains both timeless and evocative.
