I have a multidisciplinary practice that integrates masks, contemporary jewellery, moving image and photography.

 My work is playfully serious and politically dark and draws attention to environmental issues and social concerns of our everyday consumption and waste.

 Making for me is an intuitive process, that evolves with time, thought and patience. Through making I unravel the world around me, reflect on my experiences and better understand myself.

I have always been drawn to discarded materials created by the daily activities of my family’s household, donated from friends, extended community and collected from op-shops. These materials evolve intuitively through exploration, interrogation and experimentation, and are transformed into new pieces of work.

My work reflects the anxious expressions of my internal monologue in everyday life. The chatty thoughts that occupy my mind about consumption, recycling, waste, buying second hand, environmental issues, politics, capitalism, boycotting billionaires, war, and climate change all run around in my head. Through working with my hands, I find a way to channel my anxiety and calm these anxious expressions, in a world that feels out of control.

 Modern society is structured in a way that encourages overconsumption. Due to our increasingly fast pace, it seems we are all giving way to convenience, one single use item at a time.
