Artist
Statement
|
Based
in Leith, Edinburgh I am a visual
artist primarily working with the domestic environment.
Focusing mainly upon
furniture and ornament I explore the use of reproduction and
preservation.
Creating two and three
dimensional pieces my current work is based around domestic craft and
vintage
objects and interiors.
Modernisation and change inspire
me to create artworks that present a narrative for our domestic past.
Referencing
the make up of
the dwelling and the effects of human intervention I explore the
traditional
alongside the alternative kitsch aesthetic.
Overall I create accessible
and familiar pieces that have a distinct homely feel working with such
objects
as the c.1960’s swivel chair, c.1950’s cocktail sticks and the now
iconic
imagery of the three flying ducks, the swallow and the anchor.
