I had been reflecting on works that I have made since I started at Falmouth and the Grater as a piece and also as a domestic object keep coming back to me. My work is rooted in the ‘home’ – this home is considered an everyday, immaterial concept in some ways – yet the home […]
Every morning before I open my eyes I see shapes of windows, sometimes appear as they should, other times distorted, fragmented, sloping and elongated I can never quite remember how to replicate this when my eyes open They are like shadows created by light in my eyes.
I bought a light fixture so that I could experiment with the objects that I have made and how I can install and play with light within a room. Shadows and light cause an atmosphere that I would like to push more – they resonate for me from films and stories and suit the film […]
I thought of making casts of wallpaper but whilst filming I used the net curtains as an additional layer, I played with the net curtain and thought about making a sculptural version of it in tile format to construct a box or room (inspired by Daphne Wright Domestic Shrubbery ) I wanted to film Mary […]

Lucy and I discussed my charcoal drawings and talked about perhaps mixing up the drawing by use of animation – look at William Kentridge – we discussed rather than sticking on pictures of houses, use the videos of houses and woods to project into or through the drawings. Dirt is still part of the work […]
I find the play of scale with the use of the dolls house really useful They are enabling me to create an aesthetic that plays with memory, space, disturbance I edited a film together with I Movie of the footage that I projected onto the house – the films I used were the ones of […]
Started to cast a dolls house with plaster – it is made from wood and reacted really badly with the plaster and it blew the wood and distorted it – it was really heavy and hard to get out – It didn’t really work and have the aesthetic I was looking for Went to the […]
