Humber, Thames, Dover Wight Northeast becoming variable 3 or 4 occasionally 5 at first. Slight fog banks, mainly Humber and Thames. Moderate occasionally very poor.
Journeys, maps and the physical exploration of a landscape are the main focus for my work. My textiles relate stitch, texture and composition to maps and documentary photographs but also aim to capture the essence of a place. I look to the relationship between the geography, mapping of movement and the recorded experience of a place.
