STATEMENT: I make small editions of books that are print-based; usually, but not exclusively, using letterpress and woodcut. I am drawn always, to the physicality of materials and process and these influence ideas, book construction and the texts that I write. My books are the outcomes of engaging in practical experimentation – design through doing. I use simple narratives or sequential structures where image and text have equal weighting both in carrying meaning and in material presence. The symbolism of objects, looking for wildness in a seemingly tamed world, significant words and printing itself are frequently the subjects.
