The British Museum
A selection of small (A5) sketchbook drawings done in the British Museum, in pencil. The British Museum is a treasure trove. A cultural storehouse. I value the material, handled quality of the objects. An interconnectivity between culture and practice. Material is experience, it is a medium by which we can remember. Objects can be marked by what they witness. Objects are signposts, can objects can change their meaning as history changes around them?

I Pizzini
I Pizzini
I Pizzini is Italian for Post it Notes. I bought a packet of post it notes in Venice last year, and I resolved to use the packet as a sketch book to record images of Venice, with a strong predilection for building and pattern. Today I finished them, and I regard this as both a completed piece of work, and as a signpost for some larger drawings, again, recording and synthesizing my response to Venice.
