Artist Statement
Through a multi-disciplinary materials-driven practice, I connect with place by exploring spiritual, social, and scientific ecologies. I rely on encounter and am heavily invested in process, using sculpture, movement, and writing to enact rituals for the under-celebrated.
Informed by a background in biomedical research and driven by a tentacular animist intuition, I bring the scientific and poetic together in unexpected ways to invite alternative perspectives and challenge harmful ideologies. Playfully and persistently undermining binary, there is a commitment to queerness in my practice. As a mixed-ancestry non-binary queer mother, liminality and hybridisation are far more real for me than separation and boundary.
Invested with care and betraying a devotion to chiasmata and in-betweens, my works communicate with non-human kin and reach for death as a gateway to Other. They represent my hope that we could seed a different future from the composted ashes of dominant culture.
