"I work mainly in paper and textiles - increasingly within a book format, being in love with that structure.
The things that drive me are many and various; I find inspiration in my obsession with British films of the Forties, in poetry, philosophy, science fiction and stories. I am also addicted to stationery - to labels, tags and postcards. Visually the imagery I use often comes from nature and the landscape that surrounds me. I find there is usually a considerable conceptual aspect to what I do - but I don’t need it to be obvious to the viewer. I value not only the conceptual but also skill in making and aesthetic qualities. " - Sarah Morpeth
