Inspired by an unrelenting desire to make coupled with a passion for the written word, I make books to house stories, which would otherwise go untold. In creating visual narratives I take the viewer on a journey through an honest, often intimate recollection, a memory or a feeling
These books are born out of a passion to communicate, to tell stories, find a voice, create a dialogue, write, draw, photograph, print and feverously make. While learning the traditional techniques of Bookbinding, I discovered the pleasure of typewriters, letterpress printing, cutting, folding and sewing paper. I have been addicted to the accessibility and sensitivity of the book form ever since.
Themes explored in recent editions include lost love, liberation, salvaged diaries, dementia, solitude, proverbs, redundant underwear, beards; the domestic to the divine. Having published over twenty limited editions in the past five years, my books are held in several major collections both in the UK and abroad, and larger editions are stocked in London, Paris, San Francisco and Los Angeles. |
