My passion and inspiration behind Wisdom was to create a new and sculptural form out of an ordinary used object, and so breathing new life into the piece. Taking an everyday object, reworking and creating something out of its usual context, gives me great inspiration. It feeds my passion for rescuing industrial and organic materials from landfill, creating sustainable art.
I work with used, industrial, organic, discarded, pre-loved and discontinued materials, to create sustainable art. My works reflect a poetic play of light and shade, earth textures and sensual forms, inspired by the essence of nature.
