British heritage and tradition have influenced my collection, with an emphasis on rejuvenating the past to establish a contemporary, witty aesthetic. The imagery found within the collection is quintessentially British and references everything from iconic architecture to commemorative portraits. I found my inspiration whilst digging around my attic, foraging through old letters, pictures, postcards and maps to see what I could bring back to life and re-invent after years of dust and neglect.
