Artists Statement
My art combines the vibrant energy of urban settings with the raw essence of wildlife. Drawing inspiration from the street art seen around Shoreditch, London and the South West, I explore the interplay between humans and nature, using bright colours and layered textures to forge the connection between people and the natural world. My pieces highlight the beauty and resilience that endure amidst urbanisations.
In addition to painting, I create high-fire ceramic sculptures that tell stories of endurance and adaptation, incorporating 24k gold to symbolise nature's triumphs over adversity. This technique celebrates the beauty of these works while underscoring themes of survival and transformation.
From my street art and murals to sculpture and painting, my work examines narrative, aiming to leave a lasting impression of the deep bond between humanity and the wild. Each work has a soul that connects us and this inspires a deep compassion for the natural world.
