Soul to Sole Exhibition, Croome

Very excited to have been commissioned by the National Trust for this project for which I'm going to be making a film to be projected over a pair of specially handmade boots. I've been researching a woman called Sarah Gellert who was a third housemaid at Croome in the 1860's. Born in Hammersmith, London c. 1805 and once the wife of a 'Receiving Officer' and mother to Emily; she left her family in Brackley, Northants and, after a visit back to the place where she originated with 'no occupation', came to work at Croome, where in 1868 she was paid £1 to return home. Sadly by 1871 she was 'Chargeable to Northampton Justices' and was residing in the District Pauper Lunatic Asylum in Powick, Worcs. I was at Croome yesterday and having shared some of Sarah's footsteps, couldn't help trying to imagine what life might have been like for Sarah during her time there...

Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Birmingham

Work at the QEH was completed last year and is now permanently installed throughout the corridors, consultation rooms, waiting rooms and areas of the new Critical Care department.

I now have two more hospital commissions under way...
