Statement

My work is a response to a particular walk I make most days along the sea front. Each walk washes up a collection of images; a reflection of my thoughts, my mood, a physical presence .

Beach jetsam and flotsam suggests a conversation, an event, a sensation. Drawing out and on the usability of  'waste' in the natural environment:  discarded, reclaimed, colonised by nature to be washed up, reclaimed and transformed again.
