An attempt to interpret the controversy which occurs as a result of fast fashion brands taking inspiration from the culture of minority groups in the West. I use mixed media such as acrylic, conte, watercolour and pen to produce this piece in September 2020. (59.4cmx42cm).

Over this course I have acquired and explored new methods including printmaking and traditional black and white photography. The influences in my work stem from the local landscape of rivers, trees, flowers and fells. I often holiday in the Scottish highlands, which is secluded and wild. From this I created the series of prints and collagraphs, which was also specifically inspired by, and draws on the work of Norman Ackroyd.
Nostalgia is often an aspect I build into my work, particularly within photography. Photos capture memories and moments that would otherwise have been lost. Equally through my drawings and paintings I attempt to reflect timeless beauty in my surroundings that would otherwise be forgotten.
Art is primarily visual but the inspiration behind it isn’t necessarily, and so through my work I aim to capture beauty and reflect my personal faith in ways other than words.
I chose to apply to Central St Martins because of its urban, lively, busy culture that would bring a diverse change of influences and inspiration. I know that the opportunities offered by the course will help to achieve my full potential as I aspire to develop my creativity. Currently, what I enjoy most about textiles is drawing and building up exciting ranges of design ideas. I hope to learn a lot more about textile processes and find the direction that suits me best.
I'm on a mission to try to use up as much existing wool as possible before the Knitting and Stitching Exhibition in October. So I made Odd Fellow, from Jess Hutch's book of Unusual Knitted Toys (now out of print sadly).
Dr. Jatinder Baidwan, chief coroner, has released the following statement regarding the decision to direct an inquest into the events that occurred in Tumbler Ridge on Feb. 10, 2026:
“On the afternoon of Feb. 10, 2026, an entire community was forever changed and multiple families who call Tumbler Ridge home received the catastrophic news that their loved ones had lost their lives.
“The news that an individual had killed two adults and six children in a private residence and a local secondary school quickly spread across national and international media. With that, came passionate public discussions about mental health and possible gaps in support systems.
“It is with this in mind that I have reflected on the BC Coroners Service’s responsibility to reinforce confidence in the system and support public safety in British Columbia when it comes to all sudden, unnatural and unexpected deaths, and all children’s deaths.
“That is why, pursuant to Section 18 of the Coroners Act, I am directing a coroner’s inquest to publicly review the circumstances that led to nine individuals losing their lives in Tumbler Ridge on Feb. 10.
“An inquest will provide an independent and transparent forum to publicly examine the circumstances surrounding the deaths, assess systemic and procedural issues, and make evidence-based recommendations aimed at preventing similar incidents in the future. Importantly, it will involve the participation of the people in British Columbia through a jury of five to seven people.
“My sincere and heartfelt condolences go out to the families who have lost their loved ones. The grief they are experiencing at this time is unimaginable. The BC Coroners Service will continue to work with the families and the community of Tumbler Ridge to make sure their needs are met and their questions answered.
“An announcement with more details about the timing of the inquest will be provided once our investigative phase is concluded.”

Please understand I mean no offense by this statement. I was raised Christian and despite my poem below I support the religion (though I am no longer affiliated with it). However, I strongly believe it should be a choice and am upset by the way people go about Church these days. It is highly hypocritical and tainted with dishonesty. I have seen many people turn their lives around through conversion to Christianity (or another religion), but I have also seen many people claim to be one with the Church and then turn around and tell lies and commit adultery and manipulate the innocent. The Church has also manipulated the People so that they could stay powerful which I am absolutely disgusted with. (Check almost any history book) So, keeping in mind this is a controversial subject, I apologize if I offend anyone.
"Come little one," The Church says, "The Church welcomes everyone."
Everyone except those who don't agree with them.
"Come little one," The Church says, "We will teach you how to live."
Teach you how serve without question.
"Come little one," The Church says, "We will save you."
Save you from living your life without constant fear and hesitation.
"Come little one," The Church says, "Repent for your sins."
What sins? The sin of knowledge? The sin of pleasure? The sin of pride? Of living? I do not understand.
"You are lost little one," The Church says, "We pity you."
You must be mistaken. We pity you.
