'A Couple of Nice Fresh Snappers' Costume by Sadhana Peterson. Model Emma Cummings. Photo ,Richard Walker

I work as a mixed media artist.
I started as a potter in the 1970’s and expanded into stained glass.
In the 1980’s I did a performing arts degree at U.W.S. and then worked in street theatre and high school art /drama teaching.
A love of mask and costume grew out of my work in theatre and now wearable sculpture/art is an important part of my work.
Currently my work includes pottery,basketry, costume,handmade plant fibre paper and textiles.
