Wall hanging sculptures

Internal Sources of My Endless Supply

Leather, textile, straps and symbols of circularity and whimsy dismantle the trope of downtrodden womanhood. 

Cards are a recurrent motif inspired by tarot. They suggest elements of chance and forms of forgotten knowledge we have the ability to access within. 

Tucks, pleats, ties, feathers, hand-stitching and knitting are foundational to the artist's practice as intervention and a ‘handmade recovery’.

Using the visual language of tailoring the piece aims to make visible the lightness required in the face of outdated systems of belief that would try to hold us back. 

The recurrent use of leather as a stand in for vulnerability invites reconnection to our own nature as a part of the wider natural world. 

Use of strapping to connect, pull up, hold together, or hold on draws on references in fashion, luggage, mental health settings and bondage. 

Spherical forms and curving fragments are code for constant movement and certain change.
