Samples of my work for the exhibition: Immersed Skeletal Leaf In Hand Made Paper Series & Singe Prick Series 
I will be holding a joint exhibition with Paula Hickey on 3rd September. Although we both use different materials to produce our work we both draw inspiration from the land and the materials that landscapes present to us. I use raw matter and foraged materials whereas Paula uses traditional artist mark making materials such as charcoal, graphite pencil etc. We are both driven by the elements around us to inform expression; the texture and physical aspect of the land and the elements.It has been interesting how we have influenced each other's experimental processes over the past few months and how inadvertently we have both harnessed the rain to create expression......
'Created in response to the materiality of place and space within the natural landscape, the work explores the multi-layered relationships we have with our surroundings through creative enquiry. Both artists have similarities in their approach, primarily in their desire to evoke a sense of nature rather than a literal representation. Through their use of materials and process they echo themes of temporality, decay, rejuvenation and transformation.'
