It is made from hand cut original modular patterns using an innovative no sew, no glue technique. The shape of each individual piece was hand-drawn and then cut with a “cookie-cutter” style knife. This work incorporates 216 individual pieces.
The artwork is made using locally sourced, high-quality leather that is reclaimed from the shoemaking and accessories industry. The resulting richly textural pieces give rise to a vast range of design possibilities, bringing dynamism and interest to any interior space.
Selecting a calming palette of blues, creams and soft greys, this wall hanging incorporates a pattern border with a central motif as often seen in Afghan rug designs. Handmade with suede leather.

The latest series, I am working on, involves using recycled leather cut-offs from the shoe making industry here in Portugal. The range of colours and surface finishes available creates a unique palette to work from. Each individual piece is cut using a "cookie cutter" knife, made from a hand-drawn template.
My work has always explored the different layers and patterns behind everyday reality. Everything is a construction of different parts and elements. The visual world has underlying structures and patterns that combine to give us our perceived reality. My art seeks to reflect the connections and layering.
The geometric design is hand drawn using a compass and straight edge.
The combination of geometry and colour allows the eye to wander over the surface, and for me, has a meditative quality.
With collage, the act of cutting through a sheet of material reveals a window into another layer below. My work tries to create a sense of surface pattern, letting the eye roam over the picture plane, as well as creating a sense of depth and of space receding behind the surface.
