My work explores ideas about place, home and belonging. I use psycho-geographical explorations of various locations to question how a 'sense of place' or belonging is developed by how closely our current environment echoes our place of origin. Drawing, painting and primarily printmaking are all used to explore these ideas. I also have an interest in extending the norms of printmaking to incorporate materials such as metal, wood and glass. These materials are used to print on and bring print, traditionally presented on paper, into 3D 'print sculptures', objects or assemblages..The work on display is screenprints and paint on aluminium mounted onto a curved birch plywood block.
