FLUX
SOLO SHOW 2015

This body of work is about life and how nothing stays the same, we are all subject to continuous change.
Each piece in the show is merging into some form from nature, antlers, branches or drops of water.

ANTLERS
Through my work different characters have appeared; The Thinking Man, The Overt Woman and The Journey Man.
This show introduces the ‘She Stag’. Gender roles are changing, men are more involved in nurturing and women can provide.
The ‘She Stag’ is strong and wise with no restrictions on gender.

BRANCHES
By combining figures with nature I am drawing attention to the natural world as a source of energy, stability and comfort.
Figures and objects merge into branches, indicating a desire for change.

WATER
Some of the sculptures merge into drops of water, these pieces are about drawing energy from our surroundings, they also play with the idea of how fluid our form is.
We were immersed in water before birth and physically we are two-thirds water. Bathing or swimming has an invigorating and restorative effect hence water is widely associated with renewal. These three-dimensional pieces are derived from that feeling and sense of water.

Each piece in the show explores the changing nature of things.
