Bark, Skin and Stumps

Portfolio of sculptures made from reclaimed acrylic sheets, tubes and offcuts.

Discarded plastics transformed by heat become tree bark, skin and stumps, referencing California’s fire-scarred redwoods and the ancient yews and oaks of the UK, whose decaying centres harbour hidden life. Like the remaining sapwood and thick outer bark, these sculptural forms become sites of regeneration. My abstracted forms are shells, skins and shelters—hollow relics of ruin that also offer protection and renewal.
