I am currently studying for an MA. Previously, I held a number of creative and senior management roles within the advertising and design industry as well as establishing my own creative consultancy business. Drawing plays an important role within my practice. It is the immediacy and spontaneity of drawing that I like, and I try to incorporate these unique qualities in all of my work, regardless of media. It is always exciting when you create something that is a surprise and can lead to a new body of work. My painting and sculpture are figurative/abstract, cartoonish and playful. I will often bring elements, sometimes hidden elements of the everyday into my work and was attracted to upholstery foam because of its colour and malleability. Foam here stands for a domestic familiar material which coverts seamlessly into a formless unfamiliar. This paradox can be identified in my work in general, where binary pairings of familiar/unfamiliar are often at odds. It is here that the figurative/abstract, tragic/humorous become increasingly contested. The colours in my painting both reflect and exaggerate those found in the upholstery foam, trolleys and tables. For me there is a painterly association, the way the foam folds and intertwines, the compressed mass suggestive of brush strokes on a canvas. Whilst my imagery has evolved through the painting process itself, connections to the domestic have often come into play, influenced by everyday materials used in the sculpture. The same can be said for the relationship between painting and sculpture, they seem to coexist together. There could be a narrative in that they share a dialogue, for example "˜things on legs' suggesting movement, but at the same time, they each have their own individual character.
