« My work is designed to create a powerful visual impact along with an enticing tactility. It features a combination of felt and silver, or of oxidized silver with polished precious metals which are arranged to form stark contrasts or subtle transformations throughout a singular piece……. Having initially studied textiles during my art foundation I found it natural to continue using these materials when I went on to study Jewellery at Middlesex University. I was particularly attracted to this course due to the diverse nature of the work that it produced and whilst I was there we were encouraged to explore and experiment along with learning about materials more traditionally associated with jewellery »
