Living in Salabert I have an acute sense of the seasons, the weather, nature and the passage of time. We are surrounded by tracks and lanes where we can walk and observe the year as it unfolds. From my kitchen window I can see our weather coming to us from the Lot. I feel connected.

My circles and rings come from this sense of connection. Shapes repeated over and over, always subtley different which mark, physically and symbolically the passage of time

The work comes from the strong sense of continuity I feel in this place, knowing I am walking in the footsteps of those who lived in this small area - in my house even. They walked the same paths to take the stock to pasture, to go to church, to school, they heard the same church bell, watched the weather approaching from the Lot. There is a connection.
