Bucks New University
Silversmithing, Metalwork and Jewellery BA (Hons)

The ability to interpret, formulate and conceptualise the world, not through words or letters, but with durable metals using my own hands, is for me infatuating and mesmerising.

I will never have fully mastered my craft, nor do I wish to. It is the constant improvement, new techniques or new takes on ancient ways that makes silversmithing so appealing. It is a craft as old as man, yet at the same time still in the forefront of contemporary design.

I am intrigued by the legacy we carry with us from our mothers through what they have achieved and what they do and in my work I try to capture their warmth, nurture and strength.

Through spinning and raising I have created objects related to women and mothers. I try to capture their softness by the use of silicone and through the form and surface of silver.
