Collage is a departure from my sculpture in many ways. Themes involve political, ecological socio-economic discourse. My sculpture is about freeing tormented beasts! my collage is concerned with topical narratives.

​

I always make by hand, I cut out and glue, the finished articles are never digital, or AI generated.

 

I enjoy the physical process of finding, selecting, discarding and combining images from varied media sources. I prefer to handle the physical, as with my sculpture.

 

My ideas often develop as a response to current news topics, I reflect, think about how I’d like to comment, which images do I have to hand, what images best reflect the narrative I want to convey. The process of constructing the collage is surprisingly slow, the image, composition, colour, all must come together to produce as striking a comment as I can make.
