"I am fascinated by traditions and cultures, the objects of worship and our beliefs, by evolution and erosion, by water washed shapes and textures created within rock, by ruins, weathered surfaces and anything fossilised. By the power of nature and the concept of ‘Value’; the life long pursuit of capturing beauty and discovering what is important.
I used to think that there was no point in recreating nature, as nature did a pretty good job on it’s own, but much of my work now revolved around the idea of giving nature a helping hand, depicting natures reclamation of the world of man and much of my work contains an environmental theme or uses recycled materials"
