My sculptures are echoes of the sea and me, they reflect the connection that I have with the ocean and my love for it.
I draw inspiration from the hidden shapes in the waves and the sand. I create my sculptures to feel the connection with the song of the sea.
Hi Tess, welcome to the Woman Of Series! Can you tell us what it is you create?
I create sculptural vessels that echo the dancing of the waves and the singing of the sands, I create from a state of stillness and inspiration form the ocean and the connection I feel.
Talk us through your creative process. How do you reach your signature style?
