Biographical Globes

I create biographical globes that show the earth defined not by nation-states or physical landmasses but by human experience. The journeys we’ve taken and the places we’ve lived shape who we are. I take those locations and routes and translate them into physical form in wood and metal to turn a life into a sculptural object that tells a story which can be read by the person who knows it.

I am a London-based craft person trained in woodturning, jewellery making, carving and metal smithing.

Cockpit Studios

I currently work from Cockpit Studios. Cockpit provides space and support for over 170 makers across multiple disciplines at two different locations in London. I am at the Deptford location, Studio 108.

Open Studios is held twice yearly. The next one runs from 4-6 December 2026; visitors are welcome. I am happy to discuss commissions in person during Open Studios. More information on commissioning a personal biographical globe is available on the Bespoke page here.
