Collage of doll parts and objects associated with childhood - porcelain figurine heads and doll tea-sets. These objects were found whilst mudlarking along the Thames foreshore in London and each part of the collage has had a past life and is evocative of the fleeting nature of childhood. When you look at this collage I hope that you might imagine who once owned these pieces, and who once played with them. They are a tangible link to the past and are what remain of a child's life from long ago. There is always something unnerving about doll parts, but the central doll was once presumably loved by a child. How it ended up on the foreshore of the River Thames is anyone's guess.

I am a self-taught artist with a passion for using found objects in my artwork. The objects I use have been collected along the banks of the River Thames and the River Medway. As a Thames mudlark, I discover objects daily with a story behind them and I love the idea of giving these lost or discarded objects new life in a piece of art. Each item I use has a past history and a secret story. I like for the person looking at the artwork to see beyond the superficial nature of the art, and for their imagination to go on a journey as they imagine the person who last touched that clay pipe, or where the fragment of glass or pottery came from.
