Personal Statement

Sian was born in the UK and spent her childhood in Canada and Italy. She graduated with BA(Hons) in Three Dimensional Design (Ceramic) from West Surrey College of Art and Design (UCA) and has exhibited nationally and internationally.

Recent works have been exploring the qualities of British and Japanese handmade papers with the combination of earth pigments, inks, watercolours and gold leaf. There is an emphasis on layering mark making and textured surfaces which are inspired by the natural environment, land marks, lights and shadows and refined in an abstract form on board or behind glass.
