About

Clay & Fibre Artist

I am a clay & fibre artist based in the UK. My practice combines ceramic traditions with textile processes, creating vessels and wall pieces that explore rhythm, textile-inspired gestures, and the act of making.

In 2016, I created the Arts Council–funded milestone series ‘Hand to Hand’, investigating glove-making processes, which laid the foundation for  ‘Crossing the Line’ (2017). Both series continue to shape my work today.

Currently, I am developing new pieces that extend these ideas, using repeated actions and gestures to explore rhythm, repetition, and the embodied experience of touch—effects that one material alone cannot achieve. The work creates an immersive flow of material and movement, like the shuttle’s rhythm, translating sensory experiences into forms that carry energy and memory.

By combining clay and fibre through tactile processes, I honour traditional craft while pushing the boundaries of the materials. The work celebrates identity, belonging, and our human need to make, find meaning, and engage with rhythm, movement, and touch.

My work has been exhibited at venues including Burton Art Gallery & Museum, Thrown Contemporary, Black Swan Arts, and Blackburn Museum & Art Gallery, reflecting a practice engaged with contemporary sculpture and material exploration.
