oh my goodness, your work looks so wonderful!!!

thank you for your comment from ages and ages ago, you are not bothering me at all so do not apologise, i think its rather lovely :)
i am sorry for the ever so late reply, the past few weeks have been exhibitions and finishing the yaer at uni and moving out of my flat, madness!!
but now i have time to answer you question :)

i am rubbish at tlking about my own work, but basically childhood and family are my main inspirations, i think. all of my work seems to come back to childhood and memories and family members and loved ones. i make characters out of absolutely anything i can find, and they usually represent a family member or someting that has happened to me, or a certain time. i think really my work is about preserving my meories, so i dont forget them- a different kind of photography i suppose :)

my latest pieces were my toothfairy piece, which was about a memory of writing to the toothfairy and wanting to catch her, so i made her out of wire and suspended her in a jar, and then i made 3 other jars based on fairy tales that i loved as a child, and made tiny story books to go with them. the objects are usually things i find around my home, as that seems to make the pieces work better, because its all about my home really.

on my post before my last one i put pictures on of these jar people if you want to look, i dont think i explained them very well really :s

im getting embarrassed just typing about my work to you, lol, sorry if ive gone on a lot!!
id love to know what your pieces are about too, it looks like our work could be a little similar :)

hope work isnt too mad for you!!
