Ross explores themes of escapism and observation, taking influence from macro photography, which allows him to focus on the fine details of plant life. He uses printmaking alongside his ceramic work to capture these delicate patterns and textures.

A central theme running through his work is life and death, symbolised by fragile flowers. These blooms represent both beauty and impermanence, reminding the viewer of the temporary nature of all living things. Ross’ work invites us to reflect on our own place in nature – not apart from it, but deeply connected, delicate, and impermanent.
