Describe your approach to teaching
I ask students to look and think a little differently, encouraging a way of working that prioritises simplicity whilst defining what is important to the student.
What inspires your own work?
I make jewellery and objects to communicate visually on an emotional level, to convey how I feel about light and space in ancient or modern, natural or manmade landscapes.
