A selection of ongoing material investigations, focusing on processes of making, testing, and reflection, where materials are used to generate ideas rather than produce finished works. These studies sit within a broader research-led approach to developing new strands within my practice.
This work forms part of an ongoing exploration into how physical materials and digital systems
can intersect.
Reflecting on environmental change as a gradual and accumulating process,
this work combines physical making, interactive systems, and environmental data,
exploring how complex environmental conditions can be translated into sensory and material experience.
A ceramic form is combined with a ring of LED lights, each individually controlled to simulate
the shifting patterns of light on water. The system responds in real time to live sea-level data,
allowing the sculpture to register environmental change through subtle variations in light.
The piece operates as a study in material and digital interaction, where form, data, and behaviour are developed together.
