Pocket Scrapbooks, 2011
Handmade scrapbooks, each containing an enchanting medley of twelve found images carefully selected from a collection sourced over several years. Each picture is delicately glued in place. A tiny bit smaller than A5, these bookworks are crafted from co-ordinating ‘sewing’ themed found image covers and multi-colour sugar paper.
Handsewn, series of ten.

A sparkling, video piece made for Off the Hook shop window, Exeter curated by Found Space, 2011.a kind of lulling, (video still) 2011, looped video for monitor
A single image, cut from an outmoded instructional book on how to customize your clothes, provides the basis for a puzzling video exploring artifice, stillness and false adornment. The work, produced in response to the context of the clothing store, reflects an ongoing investigation into found image, sparkles and the application of simple, default rendering tools in video editing software.
