The wire I use, comes from inside slot machines, electric motors, transformers and any other sources I can find.  It is knitted on knitting frames using a variety of hand techniques.  The work is influenced by cultures from history (old & new world) and nature, both from land and sea.  These influences are used to make the bags, headgear, body pieces and creatures themselves.  The wire gives the creations structure but is also flexible, this allows the creatures to articulate.  Not wishing just to copy nature, I try to capture its essence.
