His practice explores movement, interaction and the relationship between objects, materials and technology. Working primarily with everyday materials and simple mechanical systems, he creates visually striking, often humorous sculpture that explores ideas of call and response, cause and consequence, and the unexpected behaviours of familiar objects.
His work frequently gives inanimate objects an almost human quality, combining playful experimentation with an interest in kinetic processes and the unpredictable outcomes they produce.
