I tend to use found and 'waste' materials in my work, and try to avoid using industrially mined raw materials. I am currently making work with London clay that I have dug, and I have incorporated glazes made from this clay and wood ash into my practice. All the yarn I use is sourced second-hand and I collect and repurpose any scraps.
