ABOUT
My practice explores the relationships between people, nature, and ritual through tactile, process-based mediums such as printmaking, collage, and embroidery. Stories are an important part of the work I create as this is how I believe humans connect, to art, to the world and each other.
My work often takes the form of collaborative projects developed through communal making. In these works, individual expressions are gathered and transformed into collective pieces. I view these activities as participatory rituals, which allow those involved to reflect on how we connect with each other, how narratives may become layered and evolve together.
Rooted in slowness and repetition, the work I create alone explores how ritual may look in a contemporary, fragmented world. I’m drawn to the quiet repetition of handwork, where making becomes a way to reflect, remember and connect.
I have worked as a lecturer in art and design for over a decade and enjoy developing playful approaches for and with learners. I teach undergraduates, adult learners and community workshops.
