Cellular wallpapers: Interior Narcissus depict the artist’s own cellular structures as viewed through a microscope. The micrographs are digitally converted into colourful and decorative wallpapers, reminiscent of a past era of interior design when chintz was en vogue; yet they represent the most intimate of bodily flora and fauna, including blood, swabs and cervical smears. Produced with the assistance of the cytology department at Poole Hospital whilst Artist in Residence.

Cellular wallpapers: Unknown Samples are single image wallpaper designs derived from microscope slides held within the hospital collection of teaching samples, depicting the cells of unknown patients.
