Discovered

Installed at Bayfield Hall Sculpture Trail in North Norfolk from in September and October 2025. These biomorphic pieces (plus a nautilus!) are all made from discarded materials - my own domestic waste, items found in the street or donated and thrifted. My work aims to transform what was considered waste into organic abstract forms. The project is inspired by human impact on nature, a large part of which is due to our over consumption, waste production and waste management.

 

The nautilus is made from discarded materials (two old sheets, and found waste green fabric) but is less abstract and therefore not quite part of this series of work.
