For the past few years, my work has found its place and identity as sculptural wall art inspired by local produce of fish fruit and veg markets or simple still life genre of a kitchen table with fish and vegetables ready to be prepared. I mix firing techniques, various clays, wood and flea market finds of vintage knives and forks to make it real mixed media artwork.
