Feeding Buddha
Installation
Burngreave Chapel 2004
I created this installation collecting earth from local people
to feed the collective peace.
The installation was in the Victorian Burngreave Chapel a
growing arts venue and a place where normally the Chinese
presence is invisible.
The Buddha is fast becoming an icon of the East and as my
Chinese Grandparents are now in spirit the installation was in
memory of them. |

Another City?
On my artist’s residency at the Chinese Arts Centre I was
struck by the dominance of the built environment and also
staying in a white cube gallery my own need for the natural
world.
Building a garden in the space I immediately felt more
alive. I tended daily to the plants and trees that bore
fragrances traditionally from the west in lavender and
rosemary and from the east in sweet gardenia’s.
Visitors were initially impressed by the beauty and
fragrance of what they assumed to be an eastern garden but
on closer inspection discovered the miniature clay building
s of Manchester’s landmarks such as ‘Manchester City
Library’ Manchester City Art Gallery’ , Urbis as well as
Chinese pagoda’s and bridges all dominated by the natural
world |

Peace Prayer Flags
Postern Tower Contemporary Art Gallery, York 2004.
This installation was created by interacting with the people of
Sheffield and York to make marks on a flag whilst thinking of
peace.
I stitched them together in the formation of Prayer Flags to
send out this good energy into the world but in positive respect
of the people of Tibet’ |
