About Me
Working as a silversmith, using a combination of silver, non-precious metals and plastics, I create sculptural pieces that draw inspiration from places that have fallen into a state of disrepair.
In the main I have focused on the ruins of Cammo Estate, once a grand piece of Scottish architecture, years of neglect have left little to its structure but the outside walls. I specifically explore the textures and forms that are created from the structure’s relentless battle with the elements, which slowly carve and sculpt what remains. The direct translation of these textures through the process of etching echoes the natural process of weathering, creating an archeological feel to my work.
Encasing fragments of transient objects suggestive of decay in resin, transforms them into something more permanent, capturing that moment of time.
