I merge sculpture, drawing, installation and textiles. Rooted in the notion of life’s persistence, interconnectedness, and transformation, the work focuses on climate breakdown, human exploitation of nature and over-consumption, which have led to mass extinctions.
Materiality and process are key. My emphasis on re-appropriating found, discarded, reclaimed items relates to waste, our relationship with matter, nature, and ourselves. I regard materials and life forms as non-hierarchical, questioning our value systems. Labour-intensive processes: weaving, wrapping, hand-stitching, constructing drawings in space refer to line as energy, threads through all things. My approach is a form of suturing, artivism, care and repair, giving abandoned objects new life.
