Creative research through collage, drawing, coal and stones

I explore my own work creatively through natural materials, paper collage, placement of notes, stones and layers of transparent sticky notes. The images above are from several different workshops I designed and organised during 2025.

Absence and Presence: these pictures drawn with coal and cut-outs were for the participants (June 2025) to understand the materiality of coal as carbon, and to begin to appreciate the persistent blackness and relative permanency of stones, landscape and fossil fuels against the transient insignificant human lifespan.
