Artist's statement
I am an artist, designer and maker based in Manchester. I graduated from the University of Central Lancashire in 2002 with a Masters degree in 3-dimensional design. My artistic practice incorporates the influence of both Islamic and African art, which enables me to develop contemporary ceramics based on architectural elements and forms.
With my style firmly established I now have plans to work on an increasingly larger scale and move more towards public art and architectural work.
