At its heart, my practice explores repair as a process and philosophy. Through drawing, I endeavour to capture representations of the temporal points and sites of damage and the caring acts of repair and reuse, and speculate on worlds made of waste, using apotropaic marks and repeated motifs to build stories and explore ideas. 

More literal drawings are of potsherds and other broken ceramics, stones and other damaged things - representative of my ideas and interests. Drawings of my methods (darnings for example) develop my symbolic language, and stand in for material care work.

As an interdisciplinary practitioner I engage with drawing as an expanded practice. Alongside ink, pencil, watercolour & gouache, I scrape, stitch, rip/cut, collage and layer my drawings. I incorporate ceramic sherds, pate de verre (glass), cloth, using methods like etching, scrafito and printing. The compilation of the drawn objects (flat and 3d) has relationships to spolia and assemblage - placing objects together to construct a new / renewed image.
