Skills:I’m a qualified electrical and electronic engineer who loves hacking and making found object artworks. I’m also a filmmaker, animator and photographer
My father was a clock repairer and my uncle was a bin man so, as a 6 year old boy, I’d take things they gave me to pieces and make spaceships, rockets and robots out of the bits. Now I have a business making found object artworks (predominantly robots) and, with some of them, I use my electronic skills to give them functions such as being a light, a music player or an audio/visual sculpture. I also teach kids how to make sculptures out of WEEE (waste electrical and electronic equipment)
