My artistic practice focuses on textiles particularly embroidery and patchwork. I am particularly drawn to print and natural dyeing and I often employ simple video and time lapse techniques to record my work and develop my thinking.

​

 Personal and collective memory linked to my South Wales heritage are of particular interest, as is the natural world. I am fascinated by the cycles of nature, growth and decay and the fragility of plants and flowers.

 

 I often find interest in my immediate environment at home particularly my garden and my local area. My present concern involves creating a sense of place in my practice, using materials that are found on my doorstep to explore what makes this space so special to me. Through this shift in my practice I am aiming to develop a deep connection with my surroundings and move my work forward.

​

My working practice involves research and experimentation and slowly a body of work emerges that feels right.
