I have worked in the medium of paper textile for many years. I use paper to discover ways in which it can be deconstructed to create colour, texture and depth in my paper textiles. I often use rusted papers with the expectation that each piece will change over time as the more fragile pieces deconstruct and the nature of the piece evolves.
