ARTIST STATEMENT

I have a fascination with mass produced objects and an eye for the curious or strange. Dissatisfied with the ordinary or banal I unashamedly manipulate and re-stage found and cast objects to give them a new internal logic of their own; a sassy kind of weird one. I cast feverishly before collaborating with other objects to create a conversational narrative of cheeky, dark and often humorous possibilities.
