My work is a response to returning back to the river Exe and deep routed childhood memory of a clinker boat E66, now long lost. Working with found objects, this process is almost photographic, working mostly with a monochrome palette, the tessellation of black and white capturing a moment in time before it disappears. The offerings of these found pieces has led to a carefully curated and rewarding assemblage that underlies the playful recapturing of the past, within a framework of the present.
