My work explores a range of themes that are important to me. I am passionate about coasts and oceans, particularly, those of my home on the East Coast of Australia. I delve into Umwelt and Worlding concepts to gain a deeper understanding of the natural world and the species that we share this planet with. By applying and incorporating scientific and ethical knowledge, art becomes a means of promoting positive environmental change. I am interested in the connections and symbiosis of the natural world and how these systems can be models for our interaction with each other and other species. These concepts have helped me to find ways to use my deep-felt concern for the destruction of the environment in my artistic practice.  Other related themes in my creative work center around social justice, oppression and feminist activist art, including my own personal narratives.

Technique and Process: My ceramics include works in porcelain and mid-fire white and red clays. I apply screen-printed transfers, created from my drawings and photographic imagery, to forms embossed with texture and relief.   I combine techniques such as embossing, stamping, burnishing, sgraffito and pit firing to produce a wide variety of work, particularly in monochromatic shades of black and white.

I have a commitment to promoting the conservation and protection of our wild places and leaving the planet in better condition for future generations.

I believe in the power of art to raise awareness of the impacts of our activities on other lifeforms and landforms.
