after 5 years in Wellington New Zealand I returned to Australia in 2024 

​

I live on the unceded lands of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people of the Kulin Nation, Narrm Melbourne Australia and respectfully acknowledge their Ancestors and Elders, past and present

​

I am a 5th generation Australian migrant, descended from an English convict transported to Sydney in 1819.  My family prospered on the stolen lands of the Wiradjuri people of New South Wales

​

i support the Statewide Treaty negotiations that are progressing in Victoria

​

I am a solarpunk  polymath feminist crone who makes story vessels, sculptures and embroideries.  Propelled by deep connection to nature, I begin with materials-led methodologies to bring waste and unwanted materials back into usefulness, re-contextualising their meaning and value. 

 

humour and optimism seed my critiques of consumption, intergenerational legacies of colonialism and misogyny
