It resembles a leaf decomposing after it has fallen to the ground.

I’ve got my method down now. Practice makes perfect. When new work gives you ideas for new work. Quite pleased I ordered more than I needed. Busy in the studio on the lead up to my solo show Weight of Light. There will be sculpture, installation, drawing and video. It runs 4th-16th June as part of @yorkfestivalofideas and will be held at York St Mary’s @yorkmuseumstrust . Supported by Arts Council England @aceagrams .

I think my spirit animal is a magpie, anything that sparkles seems to make my heart flutter. Prepping the installation Weight of Light for @yorkfestivalofideas that opens on 4th June. Supported by Arts Council England @aceagrams .
