This tiny teleidoscope is made from a lock. The lock’s pins were punched out and replaced with a series of little mirrors. The teleidoscope is removable from the wooden base, and can be held by its brass handle as it is looked through.

This piece was a collaboration between 3 artists attending the EMMA Collab of 2018. The octopus is holding various tools: a hammer, Japanese wood saw, branches for basket weaving, glass cutter, torch for copper, paint brush and pencil. It was made by carving out a solid piece of steel using hand held grinders and chisels - a method I was eager to try under the guidance of the grinder master Neville Parker.
The Collab Monster, Collaboration with Neville Parker and Travis Townsend. 2018. Carved hardened steel, oak.
Neville’s Special Hammer. A covert collab with Frans Lotz, 2018.
