Rome wasn't built in a day, wax, charcoal and cardboard, 2018
Experimentation and discovery are fundamental to my practice.
The starting point for this work was the appearance on my studio wall of a kind of fossil as I wiped the wall with a charcoal-dirty rag. The fossil was the remains of a sculpture I'd made directly on the wall with modelling wax and afterwards scraped off.
The discarded wax scrapings drew my attention; piles of wax lines, twists and pickings that I had torn and scraped off with my nails before absent-mindedly stock-piling ready for the next experiment.
