This work is inspired both by fractals and Fibonacci sequences. I hope to create a sense of familiarity to nature using maths.

Using a technique I call propane forming, these cups are shot at a rock and crumple on impact. They are made from pure silver 999 and have gold plated interiors.
Watch the cups being shot and crumpled in ultra slow motion, 22,500fps on my YouTube account.

Double sided ‘Wild men’ to top a gate at the North Avenue of Grimsthorpe castle, Lincolnshire. Formed with Repousse and chasing Copper in pitch, they were later gold leafed in 24 carat gold.
I worked on a restoration project to restore the Golden Gate at Chatsworth House, using chasing and Repousse i made 40 leaves in the 'Tijou' style which were then covered in 24 carat gold leaf. This inspired me to make a set of gold plated silver salad severs in the same style, see picture below.
