morth Devon based sculptor and printmaker

I have been creating statements in print and sculpture for over 20 years, often dramatising narratives relating to current affairs. Subjects have included:

• Hope & Renewal - after destruction there is always a new beginning

• Permanence - mankind may try to make his mark last forever, but nature is a more potent force

• Vulnerability - how can we take strength from showing our weakness? (See Brene Brown's TED talk)

• Political hypocrisy - why does great leadership often require the 'little people' to make sacrifices?

• Olympic sponsorship - just how unhealthy does a sponsor need to be before it's refused the opportunity to associate itself with the world's premier exercise event?

• Overpopulation - how many more people do we need?

• Growth from industrial decline - as one empire collapses, what might replace it?
