This group of paintings is concerned with the place of the porcelain figurine in the Western cultural canon, as inspired particularly from the Meissen porcelain figures of Germany. These works are a painted reimagining of characters in a personal drama. Today, these images of idealised virtue could be seen as anachronistic, or perhaps parody. But finding song lyrics that seemed to fit as titles, has given the figures a new life, a new story and has repurposed these sweet and naïve dioramas.

All the work is painted in oil either on canvas, cork tiles and a couple on bits of discarded LVL timber.
