Each beginning their life as a poem, the artist then begins the process of hand weaving, transposing the energy and emotion that occupy these words into fabric form, resulting in works that are quiet and soft both in their nature and physicality.

Creating this solid form from nothing acts like a release and resolution to  thoughts, yarn being pulled from the soul to be woven and imbue the fabric. 

The action of weaving has become symbolic in her practice, reflecting on the femininity of textiles, a medium stepped in history, mythology and spirituality.
