The collection of found objects and materials is an important aspect of my work as an artist. To this end, I gather remnants of domestic woodwork from a local tip and discarded objects from skips and junk yards. I am attracted by signs of use or age, or items which have been part of something else in an earlier life. These objects serve as inspiration for my work and/or directly as materials within compositions of found objects, photographs and made pieces in environments or wall spaces.
