From an engineering base. I have had to invent what I am, what an artist is for me. I retracted after university to basic hand making ideas emanating from artisan values. I wanted to occupy an authenticity for my actions. I am intrinsically a generalist in the sense that each thing I do is different and unstyled. I value the experimental mindset and the actions ofinnovation, adaption and modification.”"
