My creative journey began in the early 1990s and has continued to evolve through drawing, mixed media, symbolic imagery and contemporary textile art. Throughout this time, I have explored different materials, techniques and forms of expression, allowing my artistic practice to develop in unexpected directions.

The following is a record of exhibitions, publications and creative projects that have formed part of that journey.
