Colour, and the intricate winding of silk thread, is at the core of my artwork. 

Using the possibilities and restraints of winding thread, I aim to push the boundaries of what horizontal and vertical lines can form. The repetition and mathematical nature of the technique creates a sense of infinity and movement. My goal is to craft pieces that pulsate or evoke a sense of rhythm and intrigue.

The interaction of colour establish the subject of each piece. This is the most explicit and meaningful aspect of my work. I begin by making a deliberate yet sensitive decision within a focused area and as the technique progresses the picture unfolds.

The use of silk thread is important to my practice as the sheen intensifies the hues and enhancing the three-dimensional quality.

I studied Textiles at Chelsea College of Art, where I began to experiment with winding thread. I furthered my studies at The Glasgow School of Art, completing an MA in Fashion and Textiles in 2019. As part of my research, I continued to experiment with thread and pattern and was compelled to focus on textiles as an art form.
