In 1993 I created an art installation titled “There are angels amongst us” on Trout Island in Wolvercote funded by the Arts Council for Oxfordshire ArtsWeek that used fire to draw in three dimensions in space. The work was so successful it was re-commissioned multiple times around the country and I went on to create further commissions for specific events including the Campus Festival in Devon. However I have never been an artist driven by medium, rather I select the materials to suit the message, so when I realised the attraction was becoming merely spectacle I stopped creating these works and see the later ones as commercial projects only.
