My collagraph prints explore resilience, memory, and movement. As a competitive cyclist, I draw on the physical and mental demands of training,  particularly recovery from injury. Long hours spent training alone create a space that is both isolating and peaceful, where repetition becomes a form of reflection.

Fragmented interiors and landscapes are constructed through layered patterns and geometric forms, often inspired by the textures and shapes of the Derbyshire landscape, and in my house surrounded by artwork where I have completed many training sessions. The collagraph process is central to this work. Layered, tactile surfaces echo strain, endurance, and stress accumulation over time.
