​In my most recent work I look at the human form, playing with the idea that making a figure in stone, putting them on a plinth gives the person depicted a formality and grandeur. The sense that the specific person shown is worth something more than the flesh and blood of the observer. I look at making the figures I create less formal, less specific, they may be immortalised in stone, but they are still a human like any other. With this idea I look at removing the specific features of the person but emphasize their life and character through informal gesture, movement and gaze.
