Abstract object 1 (recycled wood,wool,mixed media) 120x40x55cm 2009
Artist statement:
My practice is deeply rooted in drawing practice as a process of thinking and articulating bodily gesture, and is closely related to an exploration of the ‘feminine’. I use fabrication processes, mixed media and installation as a holistic experience of creating my own Alternative Syntax rooted in aesthetic discourses.
