I have a strong interest in discarded objects such as old coins, lids, buttons, perspex, glass and bronze shavings. I collect these in hospitals, at factories, op shops and sometimes in street gutters. These "relinquished relics" as I like to think of them take on a new life when refashioned into a piece of jewellery.
Spending the majority of my time living in Tasmania in recent years, I developed an obsession for the taste and smell of leatherwood honey. I began casting beeswax to ensure I was in its constant company, which has resulted in the creation of a range of "winter honeycomb" jewellery.
I primarily work with sterling silver, brass and bronze, designing and making the work independently by hand. I also handmake my own packaging for my jewellery from recycled materials.
