I am a small studio artist living and working on Wadawurrung Land (known as Ballarat) in Victoria, Australia. Drawing on memory and storytelling, I strive to activate personal reflection and create a feeling of wonderment when encountering my work. I mainly work with ceramics and painting but also enjoy printmaking, drawing and installation work.

Being a fantasy bookworm from a young age, I have always loved the escape that fairytales and folklore provide as well as the gorgeous scenery and worlds contained within. As a little girl, I would watch the flowers and trees, hoping to find a fairy. I would sit outside at night and speak with the moon, believing she could hear me. While I lost some of the magic I held as a child, I still try to see the world in this way. Finding the beauty and magic that exists in nature, in our cultures and in the craziness that is the human experience; I am always aiming to capture these experiences in my creations. I balance this love of the fantastical with a love for our natural world and our experiences as humans. It’s this intersection in which you can find my artwork. And while I like to make things beautiful in my work, my aim is not to create beauty but to showcase beauty that exists. The beauty in the lovely curves and dimples of the female body, the beauty in sadness and loss, the beauty in moving through grief and the beauty in landscapes, ancient and alive. There is so much beauty in life and it’s these simple, complex and wild things that I hope to show to the world.
