Light Land
The natural world is not very often present in my work, I am not thinking about landscapes when drawing, ‘Light Land’ is a bit of an exception, I felt moonlight on a snowy hill.

Underground
Working with light I soon realised that light has more impact the darker the place I am working in is. With these drawings I was imagining underground forms and the material that needed to be removed to make space underground. Quarries fascinate me and the blocky void they create. Looking back at these drawings my aim was perhaps to occupy these voids and imagine the impact and potential of these spaces.
Light Form
Working on black paper is the most natural way of drawing for me, currently reflecting on my drawing practise I realise that when I am working on a dark background I am working with light trying to get closer to the qualities of light. As a sculptor form and space is my main tool to work with and in these drawings, forms are building or light moves around a form.
