My practise explores the potential for prosthetic limbs which are made with aesthetic
considerations in mind. My work began with the idea of bespoke prosthetics which are perceived, both by their wearer and observers, as aesthetically pleasing objects, as well as being functional.
As these ideas progressed and developed I began to envisage a sculptural prosthetic which would work visually, both on and off the body. The project culminated in the creation of a sculptural prosthetic in collaboration with a wearer who shares my vision. Hereford
