The first is a working shot of my third Breakthrough cube. The final image shows the sculpture finished. I am looking to find a way of making something as fine and fragile as a spider's web, but there are practical concerns and such a piece would break almost as soon as someone looked at it. Out of that limitation came my 'Breakthrough cubes' where the outer supporting structure is left in place to hold a delicate marble membrane. So far I have made dozens of models in clay and three larger sculptures in marble.

Born on a farm in Germany - came to England in 1969. Live and work in South London in a converted church hall. My Dad introduced me to cosmology and that was a strong influence earlier on. Now I use my own daily experiences as an inspiration. I work with steel, chopping industrial angle section into random bits and welding these differently angled pieces into boxes which are freestanding or hang off the wall like giant birdboxes. It makes them appear human, vulnerable, chaotic, even funny. Parallel to that I carve marble sculptures in Italy. In 2006 I won a residency to learn to carve marble in Pietrasanta in Italy for three months. This material has opened up a perfect counter balance to steel. I carve away and reveal rather than construct.
