My idea was to take elements of nature that we trample underfoot and materials that we discard daily - and amplify them into significant objects. To do this I made two series of tiny layered collages into 35mm slide cases.
In the first series I wanted to elevate and magnify tiny overlooked organic details of nature and make them centre stage, using only inks, watercolours and gels to highlight shapes and textures.
For the follow up series, again using a mix of 'unseen' fragments of discarded fabrics, papers and found objects with glues, inks and pigments to make images that mimicked nature like storms, clouds, stone, water or night skies.
Originally made for projection, these images are now available as either A2 or A3 fine art prints.
