Whilst visiting New York, we took the super speedy East River Ferry from N. 6th St / N. Williamsburg up to Hunters Point South / Long Island City. Once there, we headed north to...

I did some experiments creating the shapes that would be attached at each junction of the metal framework of my work for the 7 Bridges public Art project, ‘Modern Fossil‘. By pouring jesmonite into test...
