Masham
I am an artist mainly working with found objects, collage, paint and textiles. Much of my work examines the broken and damaged and the sacred.

In my mixed media work I explore a personal and cultural history through found object sculpture assemblage and collage. My work takes discarded objects from the past and through the reworking of them attempts to speak about the present and future. It looks at decay and preservation,the aged, worn and supposedly imperfect. The work makes connections between people who have long gone from this world and our current experience of the world, it . It examines collections, why we collect and how objects preserve memory and storytelling.
