I am a woodturner based in London, working primarily with wood and precious metal. My practice is centred on developing techniques and skills that allow for the creation of original work combining these materials, with a particular focus on hand-turned globes.

What began as a deliberate exploration of craft in 2023 led me to the lathe where woodturning quickly became my focus. I spent much of the following year learning at the lathe, developing both technical control, traditional skills and discovering my own approach to making through turning.

The globe work developed gradually through this process. Early experiments explored the technical challenge of turning accurate spheres and cutting clean, controlled channels into curved surfaces. From there, the work evolved into mapping routes and locations using inlaid metals, combining my long-standing interests in geography, history, and design with the physical discipline of the lathe.

Each globe is developed from first principles in the workshop. Routes and locations are researched, plotted, carved by hand, and inlaid individually. Over time, this has grown into a coherent body of work focused on journeys, connections, and the ways people locate meaning in place and movement. This approach, and the specific form it has taken, is the result of my own experimentation and development over the past several years.

My globes have been exhibited in London and commissioned by private collectors and institutions.

I now work full-time from my studio at Cockpit Deptford in London.
