This is my new blog showing current and past works of mine (hopefully). I am currently doing a fine art course in university so my work is still developing and changing a lot. My work has focused on s range of different themes including consumerism and interactions between nature and the man-made world we live in, Enjoy!

Future of homes, 2015. Cardboard houses. I made these little cardboard houses/buildings for a previous piece and once that piece was finished, I decided to reuse these creations for this piece.'Future of homes focuses on abandoned buildings and how they have been taken over by nature when humans have gone. It also references they possible future of new build homes once humans have moved out. (represented by how nature has started to grow in and around these buildings)

Untitled, 2014-2015. Paper drawings. This was an ongoing piece for a time and was around where I live during university terms. I am trying show and bring attention to forgotten plants in urban areas by creating little artwork of them and leaving these drawing with the plant

Lost, 2015. Sculpture made of wire. The message of this collection of sculptures is how people are becoming more and more forgotten and lost in modern society due to its quick pace and constant changes. The paper and wire vines growing over the person is linked to that people are not the only thing forgotten in modern society, nature is as well but as it starts to fight back it will take over the weak in order to survive. I am starting to place these in “forgotten” locations outside and inside

A Thousand Wishes, 2014 Installation. Origami cranes made from magazine pages. This installation focused on the idea of consumerism increasing our want and desire for particular things (e.g designer shoes etc). I then attempted to combine this with origami cranes and their links to wishing, the more cranes you make, the greater chance of the wish coming true.
