ARTIST'S STATEMENT
My work concerns issues around girlhood, femininity and growing up. Some of my pieces refer to key archetypes from feminine psychology and mythology – each containing a model of a doll (‘the Girl’) that I have kept since childhood. I devise scenes with my doll that allow me to laugh at myself, provide comfort, or recollect memories. My process involves a range of techniques that serve the purpose of the work e.g. modelling in wax, mould-making through a lost-wax process, casting, printing and painting on glass, cold-working, engraving as well as stained glass techniques.
