Map of My World

This series is about linking my world at home with my world abroad. Works in this series celebrate pattern in nature. I have used images of the things that surround me in the natural world and looked further afield to places I have travelled to, to find images of nature that others have created to depict their cultural idea of the world around them.  By using pattern, we can recreate or invoke a memory of another time or place. By combining images of the things around me with the patterns created by others I have tried to create a narrative about my world that encourages others to look more mindfully at the wonders and mystery of nature and what surrounds us every day.
