The different layers of netting give a sense of depth and shadow. The image is taken from a building in Croyden, London locally known as the 50p building ( it looks like a stack of rotated 50 pence coins. The building was designed by Richard Seifert & Partners and completed in 1970.

I have always loved geometry, pattern and maths. My work is a means of exploring and understanding these relationships.
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 bespoke knife, made from a hand-drawn template.
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.
