Art and crafts have been an integral part of my life, with a particular passion for sewing that dates back to early childhood, where I first learned sewing from my Mum. While I have delved into various other creative pursuits over the years, the allure of stitching has always brought me back. Throughout my artistic journey, I’ve explored diverse techniques, developing a profound fascination for the interplay of layers and shadows—both visible and concealed.
Though choice of subject matter may evolve, the essence of my work consistently revolves around capturing and expressing these layers and shadows. I particularly enjoy in utilising fabric, print, and stitch to convey my personal experiences as a deaf person navigating a hearing world.
