In 3-dimensional work I fuse ceramic and glass for mosaics and sculpture, often combining these pieces with reclaimed and found materials……. I love the vibrancy of light passing through glass, and the extraordinary richness of shape and variety to be found in something so ordinary as a a broken toy or squashed can on the road …. things abandoned, unvalued, lost, changed…..especially toys, partly from the power of their archetypal imagery and also from concern about the huge environmental impact of plastics and oil……the work becomes a metaphor perhaps for survival and re-creation….
