My desire to work with metal creatively started in the jewellery workshop early on in to a National Diploma of art and design. In the second year the doors to the heavy metal workshop opened and my understanding of metal as a material rapidly grew along with my designs, skills and ideas. The following year I moved East Sussex and spent 3 years at the Brighton university of Art & Design studying materials practice specialising in Metal & Wood.
As a maker I continually find my self being inspired by a theme that I can only best describe as ‘Nature’s Revenge’, this theme has continually entwined its self within my work. Rather than aspiring to halt the natural inflictions I aim to embrace them within my work and try to create and maintain a balance between natural beauty and physical destruction. Utilising this beauty both directly and conceptually my pieces reflects the tenacity and strength of ‘Natures Revenge’ against the man made.
My Most resent project Tornado Air break Desk took my work in a new direction where previously it was more organic and free flowing embracing natural process such as rusting. The client was Smile Works Liverpool, a cosmetic dentist who's clean and clinical atheistic forms the building blocks of as their branding. The air break from a Tornado Fighter jet was the starting point and eventually was transformed in to the highly polished crisply finished desk which tied in perfectly with the ascetic of there waiting room .
