I work with mixed media textiles making installations that
reflect my concern for the environment and particularly those of the sea, the
death of coral and depletion of fish stocks caused by pollution and global
warming. I experiment with and explore
the particular qualities and reactions of fibres like silk, wool, paper, wire
and wax. Using this experience I create three dimensional structures . My aim is to intrigue and interest the viewer
without being didactic. Hopefully, on
closer inspection my concerns become apparent; the destruction of valuable
natural resources.
These recent pieces are called
' A Beautiful white Death' - Beautiful because in our culture white is seen as beautiful bridal, pure, clean and innocent
Death - coral turns white when dead
