CV

I use a combination of analogue and digital processes to explore digital and physical form. Foremost this means I use new-lens based media such as LiDAR and photogrammetry and CNC manufacturing techniques such as CNC milling and laser cutting/engraving alongside slip-cast and hand-built ceramic vessels. Aesthetically and conceptually I am interested in the cyclical movement between what is porous, liquid or illegible and tangible 'vessels'. I draw diverse inspiration from architectural encounters, surrealist techniques, queer theory, poetic/literary narrative and humour.
