about
I am a research-based, experimental artist working with ecological and energetic systems within living environments. Working across installation, film, textiles, and organic materials, I bring together art, ritual, and science to investigate the interconnectivity of natural systems.
My practice is grounded in relationality and informed by animism, understanding nature as a conscious, intelligent system with which we are in constant exchange. Through transdisciplinary methods, I engage with both visible and unseen processes, creating works that invite new ways of sensing the world.
My work has been recognised through winning the Brenda Clouten Memorial Art Scholarship, the HIC Art Residency at The Creator Incubator, and the HEAP Experimental Award.
Living with endometriosis and chronic pain has reshaped my practice, prioritising concept, collaboration, and working in rhythm with my body. I explore how we exist within and respond to the forces that shape lived experience.
I live and work on Awabakal/Worimi Country. Sovereignty was never ceded.
