Cromer Art Space

Thrilled to report that the Cromer Art Space communications team have selected my image for their 2026 printed programme cover…….

Giant Ice Cream Cone standing at the entrance of Cromer Pier.
In the summer of 2010, I took a photograph of the 1.5 metre ice cream cone standing at the entrance of Cromer Pier. I felt inspired by its exaggerated scale, printed out the photograph and pinned it to my studio wall with thoughts of making a piece of artwork in response. 10 years later during my preparation for Norfolk Open Studios the Cromer ice cream sculpture came to mind and I began to think about how I could refashion this frozen treat with my signature material? Fast forward to 2025 and I have a collection of ice creams assembled with clothing fragments and toy soldiers, including 99 used clothing labels, disassembled shirt collars and cuffs and 8 neck ties.
