Made as a bolster cover and hung at four points to create movement and alteration to the composition. The bolster, open at each end, embraces the ebb and flow of human emotion – grief, change and renewal. Densely painted and printed with illegible handwriting appearing as embroidery or hair.

Made as a bolster cover and hung at four points to create movement and alteration to the composition. The bolster, open at each end, embraces the ebb and flow of human emotion. Shadows and seeping colour play against more rigid small-scale grids in captured moments.

Recast

'Recast' takes as its theme the shifting dynamic within an interior space. Individual compositions fuse within an overall rhythmic structure. The repetitious, subtle, resonating surface forms a domestic backdrop, where boundaries, junctions, intersections, overlaps and changing light create a sense of transience and progression and laser-cut areas create shadows.

Album

‘Album’ explores a complex family history through the idea of photographs, touching on a sense of absence within an interior. Pattern and shadow permeate pillowcases, alluding to the domestic space.
