These are very rough sketches (please ignore the colour of the silicon!) from a personal project I've been working on, based around the idea of giving integrity to broken things - I'm a bit of a hoarder of chipped and handle-less mugs! The top piece is a paper cast and the bottom one is made of silicon - I'm interested in the idea of having similar objects made of different materials, one as an art object and the other as a product. Please add any thoughts or ideas!
Originally trained in textile design, I am interested in working between the boundaries of art and design to create objects that are thought provoking and relevant, exploring universal themes such as eating, time, community and communication. I am currently designer in residence at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design and having gone through the transition of working in a full busy studio to working independently would appreciate any comments, interest or advice through this blog!
