Hanami is a Japanese ritual that happens every spring. Seeing the cherry blossoms on the streets of London made me nostalgic about being in Japan and attending these celebrations as a child. They can often be an excuse to get plastered but often is a showcase for some beautiful kimonos and other traditional crafts.

Footprints is about the oncoming summer. Going on summer holidays is about the warmth of the sun on my face, sweet flavours in my mouth, the varying textures from the water, sand, beach grass and the shells we decorate sandcastles with. It's about having fun as a family, with friends - new and old, young and not so young.

Orbit is about the totally under-appreciated nature of the magic of the universe. How can anyone look at the universe and all its rhythms, all the planets and stars hanigng in the delicate balance of a constellation and deny the magic in our lives? I am a tiny dot in the vastness of space, seemingly insignificant but I know that I am a part of the cycles and patterns that the planets are also aligned to.
