MA work

I reassess usable objects that we come across in daily life, particularly those associated with the rituals of dining, trying to create objects that promote a more thoughtful approach and use.

With background training in silversmithing, I now work with a wide range of materials and processes to convey my ideas, placing my work within the realms of fine craft and product design.

Above all, I hope to create enduring objects, which can enhance and create a more connected experience.
