Sculptor in Nottingham

I am a sculptor and artist-educator based in Nottinghamshire, working from the Harley Foundation Studios on the Welbeck estate. I have been working with recycled materials since 1997, making unique figurative recycled sculptures from household waste and found objects.

I make bespoke recycled and sustainable sculptures for businesses and events. These are created from waste materials relevant to the location or client, and encourage people to consider the ways in which the waste they produce might have the potential for creative re-use. Alongside this I work with galleries, schools, and other organisations running recycled art workshops for children, families and adults.
