“In 2020 the world changed. I must confess, I have listened to far too many News Alerts and broadcasts since the onset of the pandemic! However, the repeated clichés and over use of phrases have conjured up fanciful images in my head and fueled my imagination. Ideas for sculptures arrive at the most unexpected times – as I waken in the mornings, when I’m cooking a meal or doing the laundry. My sketch book is often no more than a handy scrap of paper and sketches can be mere short- hand scribbles recording an idea before it vanishes.” Lesley Whitham
