Show, June 2024, Bristol School of Art (Copper, gilding metal and silver)
I grew up spending the summers with my grandparents on the remote island of Gotland, situated in the Baltic sea. We walked the rocky shoreline and always passed a stone labyrinth in the grass along the way. I was told if I ever had a problem I should walk the path and by the time I reached the end, I would have found a solution.

‘Path to solution’
‘Fossil to cufflink’
Interim show, March 2024, Bristol School of Art (Fossil, clay, plaster, slip, gilding metal)
Prosses work from fossil to cufflink. Experimental work to see if slipcase imprints of fossils can be preserved and worked into wearable jewellery.
‘The ugly balls’
Show 2023, Bristol School of Art (Plastic, leather, textile, ceramic, copper, enamel)
The project started with the wish to work with found object and changing, reusing or upgrading them by adding new materials. A scruffy old football was beautified with textile tufting weaving and macramé. This lead to the making of a ceramic and metal ball and this series may continue growing.
‘Lock up the wine’
Show 2022, Bristol School of Art (copper, brass)
In this project I added a new copper box to cover the top of a vintage family heirloom, a wine carafe, protecting it and its content.
