Each of my figures bears bold narratives from mythology, particularly Welsh, and explore themes around beauty, nature, metamorphosis and mystery. I like to make reference to the many stories and characters in history mostly through the female form, where symbolism plays an important part.
​
My intention is not to execute my work literally but rather to give a glimpse of the character behind the story.
I hand build each sculpture in solid clay with the aid of an armature, then hollow out prior to firing multiple times. I add layers of oxides, underglazes and glazes until I achieve the desired effect.
