The surface material in this artwork is mortar. A material that I work with occasionally when helping my dad on the building site. As an artist, however, I have tested the physical property of this material by putting it through many experimental processes, which can now provide a new sense of appreciation.
I have also worked with used mortar, the remnants of mortar, which can be found on the building site. Instead of it going into the skip and then taken to landfill I have built it back up as the main structural ground for this artwork. It is also my way of challenging any wasteful behaviour and supporting the environment.

I am a contemporary artist who works in Hampshire and London. As an artist, my main concern is challenging people to see the possibilities in beauty through pre-used building materials where others see functionality. I see my work as autobiographical because as well as working as an artist I support my dad in the building trade. When I create my artworks I experiment by combining pre-used building materials (cement, plaster, building sand, strong liquidizes, tarpaulin, polyethylene plastic, etc) with art supplies (glosses, acrylics, oils, glues, Canvas, etc). I get most excited when I start to see the pre-used building materials and art supplies morphing into one another. When operating on the building site, I must be precise and careful with my making. Each stage must be meticulously calculated and completed perfectly. When in my studio, however, I work much looser and freer, and allow accidents to become an integral part of the artwork. I enjoy merging both methods of creating because it provides an uncanny twist to an individual’s experience.
