It is concerned primarily with abstract imagery and the translation of drawn marks into cloth. By making work that is pieced, patched and assembled, he aims to create pieces that explore repetition, pattern and the disrupted or dissonant journey of line and image across and through the surface of cloth. On show will be finished cloth pieces, drawings, collages and samples.➔ The studio is a short walk from Stroud town centre: Uplands Cottage is on Slad Road, five houses along from the Fountain pub, on the left hand side.
