about

"Jarvis" is a literary place that Dylan Thomas created in his early prose in which some of his stories are set. The characters and the landscapes that are placed in these mystical tales often possess otherworldly and mythological qualities. I see parallels within the narrative and imagery of folk music from the British Isles. Having both power in its rawness and beauty in its eloquence, I use my own personal response to this kind of folk music whilst relocating it into a modern setting, creating ‘Dreams of Jarvis’.
