Fun Limited
Beach balls, foam, found objects and children – a six-week residency at Orleans House Gallery that took over the whole building inside and out.

Made withinreasonto surprise
I’ve been at this since 1998. Mostly tin cans and broken stuff, sometimes for galleries, sometimes for kids, always for me. Have a poke around.
Featured work
Fill Bill
What happens when you take a Billy bookcase seriously? A solo show at Civic Gallery Barnsley exploring the everyday object as sculpture.
Won’t Sit Still
Scrub Together has made it out of storage and is part of this new exhibition at Manchester Art Gallery – a vibrant celebration of furniture and lighting across a century of collecting.
★ A year-long project
That year I made a thing every day.
Everyday Objects began in 2012 as a “one-item-a-day” blog dedicated to found materials and “near-rubbish.” The project gained immediate traction, leading to a booked touring show and a wealth of ideas that continue to fuel my practice today.
Since 2013, the exhibition has toured seven English galleries. I am incredibly grateful to the 20-21 Gallery Scunthorpe for launching the tour, and to Barnsley Civic and The Harley Gallery for their ongoing support.

Tin cans, mostly
Ways to leave a tin can.
I started cutting them up in the late 90s and never really stopped. Light, planter, mirror, sculpture, whatever. Forty-something so far, more in the pipeline.

Bits and bobs from the studio. Mostly one-offs. Priced fairly, packed carefully, sent when I get to the post office.
