Return to Nature

Art has always been my outlet and nature my solace and both have carried me through life. In my sculptural work I reunite vintage books with the natural world from which their paper pages are sourced, with trees in particular being a recurrent theme. It has been a long-term dream to create a book of my own work after sculpting with other peoples’ books for many years. Due to the recent worsening of health issues sculpting has become more of a challenge and so this seemed the perfect opportunity to make that dream a reality, proving that every cloud really does have a silver lining. It is my wish that others facing similar health battles or challenges of any sort will feel seen and less alone. I hope you will find a few moments of peace with this book and a renewed connection to the natural world and consequently your own nature, which really is, the ultimate form of healing.
