Currently I am working on a
series of pieces that either incorporate or are inspired
by the plastic netting that is ubiquitous in food
packaging. As a material it is very practical, being
lightweight and durable, but at the same time it is
also incredibly flexible. Despite being almost immediately
discarded by most people I find this type of netting
to have a strong visual presence.
By translating the delicate nature of plastic netting
into silver I am able to explore space and structure
within my work and the introduction of other materials
such as resin, Perspex and gemstones allows me to
reconstruct packaging as something covetable and desirable.
