About a multidisciplinary artist and designer 
Holding beauty and community, with the body as the centre standing between the land and the sky, a vitality flowing from above and below, creating and weaving with people and materials. My work is based in places, places which are dying, removed, displaced, places which are holy, sacred, existing in temporal realms. These places become landscapes of knowledge, of cultural, mythical beliefs and stories, of memories and traces. Landscapes which are visible and invisible. This landscape of knowledge is held by the roots of ecological thinking, and ancient wisdom of my culture. 

By tools of images, sculpture, story-telling, videos, gatherings, performances, I position my practice as a bridge between the two worlds, between human and non- human, self and the surrounding, the ancient and the modern, the sacred and the mundane, the mountain and the city.

My current work responds to the urgencies of ecological crisis through addressing colonial mentality, Extractivism, rapid urbanisation and industrialisation.
