Fascinated by the power of figurative sculpture, the classic medium to express greatness, I create works ranging from busts of the less-represented, to political kinetic sculptures questioning the preponderance of white, male figurative memorials. One such, The Ectoplasm of Self-Delusion (steel, resin, vaseline, motor), won the RomArt Sculpture Prize (2017) in Rome.

In 2018 I produced The Children of Calais (resin), a life-sized sculpture of modern children in poses echoing Rodin’s The Burghers of Calais, recognising the plight of child refugees. Shortlisted for Passion for Freedom, this led to a commission for the UK's new Kinder-transport memorial.

I'm also fascinated by non-figurative forms of memorial: Memorial (plywood, oil, pump) won the Sustainability Art Prize, and The Holy See Gets It (prayer book paper, ink, human voice) concerning clerical sexual abuse of children, won the Arte Laguna Prize (2016) in Venice.
