Fantastic to have a solo show of my work with Magical Women. 







Monday 14 September 2020





In this set of ink and gouache drawings, I explore my cultural and historical locators as a Northern, working class Catholic woman. I am obsessed with stories and narrative inquiry. I use these methodologies to explore the rich and complex visual markers inherent in the traditions and rituals of my culture.  I depict here the statuary, costumes, votives, artefacts and domestic rituals of a life lived in faith. I am an object-maker; trained as a potter, as such I aim to imbue the subjects of my drawings with the weight of this world and a hint of the next.
