    I am a sustainable textile artist and designer exploring the intersection of craft, storytelling, and wellbeing. Using embroidery, layering, and fabric manipulation, I transform overlooked materials into textiles that celebrate resilience. My work, often shaped by personal health experiences, empowers women and gives voice to hidden stories.

    I am interested in myth, history and ways in which the historical can collide and interact with the contemporary. Giving voice to, and making visible, people and events which have been ignored or marginalised is important to me, as is the creation of a political artistic practice.

    Through my work I want to explore the mythological representation of women and how stories have been influenced and reengineered by patriarchy. How women have been written out of folklore and how stories have been changed to fit in with this ideology.
