My work is an exploration of contemporary metals within the context of wearable forms. I am inspired by the vast array of shapes and colours found in plant life throughout the seasons.
The fresh new growth of spring, the flamboyant colours of summer, the sorrow of autumn’s slow death, and the chill of winter, these are things that move me to create.

The passage of time alters the appearance of plants quite dramatically at times, and this theme is frequently found within her works.
