My art practise is based upon two simple things - Paper and clay.

I create and fire paperclay sculptures, and carve compressed paper sculptures.

Since 1993 I have exhibited and given workshops on paperclay. The growing interest in my work has enabled me to learn how the arts and crafts are organised in society. The ceramic paperclay work is an attempt to illustrate this organisation of the arts and crafts.
