Profile
I am a self taught land artist and sculptor from Lancaster in the North West of England. My work usually consists of ephemeral sculptures made from natural materials found round and about where the sculpture is made. I only use natural materials to construct my sculptures.
My work focuses on the structures, processes and forms of nature and my sculptures attempt to reveal a fresh perspective on what we know about those materials and processes. A specific tree during a particular autumn flush of colour may afford the land artist the opportunity to reveal all the colours of autumn. This chance may come only for a few days and during a particularly good season. Much of my work is about the new materials that each season brings.
I am primarily influenced by Andy Goldsworthy and I have extensively studied his sculptures including trying to create my own versions in an attempt to discover the process he went through. If you are at all interested in land art then you must investigate his wonderful art shown in his books. They are quite astounding.
I take no credit for any work that has been produced during my study of Goldsworthy’s work. They are recorded in my blog but not for sale here. Only my own original works are available.
