My work is intimately connected to and influenced by Southampton; exploring notions of memory and its relationship to place. Primarily focusing on miniature biro drawings and reliefs, many of the pieces created for Through Sand have been inspired by the city councils extensive archive, using historic postcards and photographs as stimulus and creating images that are personal reflections on the city and its recent past.
