Profile:

MA in Ceramics by Creative Practice at Liverpool Hope University 2005-2007
Ba Hons in 3d Design (specialising in Ceramics and Metal) at Liverpool Hope University 2000-2003.

Statement:

I am constantly designing, making and exhibiting my Ceramic projects. I have recently begun experimenting with making 2d artworks. I am a member of "Soup" and enjoy finding venues and setting up exhibitions with the group. I work as a freelance Artist Educator and Information Assistant at Tate Liverpool.

Slice Angles (pictured right):

These pieces are part of an ongoing project that has lasted the duration of my Masters degree. Initial inspiration came from motifs found in Art Deco Design; this research led me to Modernism and eventually to Minimalist Art.
I build in series and enjoy creating variations of a piece, saturating an idea then moving on to the next stage by developing the most successful outcomes.
My primary concerns are balance and form, both of which are highlighted in this series. Visual movement is created by randomly varying the point of balance when displaying the pieces alongside each other.

News:

I am currently on the AA2A scheme at Liverpool Community College, artist in residence within the Ceramics Department 2008-2009.
