'Tartan Glass' Studio Clearance series Sculpture

******My art charts the course of my life 'journey', how the world and I inter-relate, my world view, discovering who I am. Through images and words that begin as unconscious responses, initially intangible, it is their gradual realisation on paper, screen, or making in a solid medium that creates personal awareness. In turn, my work is for other people and peoples. ******I work/have worked with a variety of materials; photography, paper, book arts and the written word, glass, and built sculpture in natural or recycled materials. ******For my 'Glass and Light' series, I have revisited earlier work, particularly of 'Sculpture by the Sea' 2013/14. I re-question the personal and wider meaning in each artwork. *****My photography, 'Real/Unreal' series, 'Dynamic Earth' series, 'Opus Magnum' series, is about world beaches visited, their visual 'outer' landscapes, and their 'inner' microscopic awe-inspiring sand grains; it is about ways of perceiving; large to small, outer to inner, inner to outer. For me it is about a spiritual aesthetic found in the natural world. ******I have been a visual artist for the last 20+ years, following working in nursing and health, psychology and research, as a specialist bookseller, and rural smallholder planting a forest garden. *******As an artist, I hope that my work stirs questions for others and gently widens perspectives and sensibilities; that through my work I am doing something which is meaningful for others in the wider world. *******For 'bread and butter' I currently work at Snape Maltings Concert Hall and music campus site, on the banks of the Alde Estuary, in a non arts capacity, but absorbing the creative vibes. *******Please note: My photographic and 2D artwork is available to buy here as open edition prints on photo paper at small size.
