My work explores the stories embedded in everyday objects and the ways memory shapes identity. I work across painting, textiles, ceramics, artists' books and assemblage, creating works that invite viewers to consider the personal histories carried within domestic objects, landscapes and the spaces we inhabit.

Rather than depicting the world on a grand scale, I am interested in the microcosm — the ordinary objects and experiences that quietly shape our lives. A chair, a child's toy, a piece of fabric or a collection of houses can become vessels for memory, loss, belonging, resilience and transformation. Through these intimate narratives, I explore experiences that can also be universal.

Much of my work draws upon autobiography, but extends beyond personal history into broader social and cultural themes. Childhood, identity, migration, family, education and the passage of time recur throughout my work. The Commodification of Childhood, for example, examines society's perceptions of children, while other works explore questions of home, fate and the choices that alter the course of our lives.

My background in education, counselling and research has influenced the way I approach art. I am interested in how stories are told, remembered and reconstructed, and how making can become a form of reflection and meaning-making. I approach each work as both an act of inquiry and an act of care.

Whether working with paint, thread, clay, or found objects, I seek to create pieces that encourage viewers to reflect on their own memories and experiences.

Although my work is grounded in my own experiences, I hope it can move from the particular to the universal, giving viewers space to reflect on their own memories and experiences.
