The work over recent years has pursued two strands of realisation and exposure.. Alongside exhibiting in galleries nationally and internationally, work has been produced through commissions to realise public artworks, temporary and permanent, for significant sites in London and the UK. Much of the work is site specific, produced as a response to research into the particulars and qualities of a space/place.

The outcome is often architectural, with a concern for structure and construction. There is a focus on substance, matter and stuff, and how this can be exploited, manipulated, accentuated and transformed. Light , colour and reflection are intrinsic, bringing aspects of time to the work. The fugitive, the evanescent, the diaphanous, are elements that introduce the sublime.
