A practice in layers
Painting is the visible surface.
A deeper thread runs throughout the work: inherited, buried, materiality continually remade. Traced through the archive, to embodied reconstruction, the painted surface translates into a new fabric of digital and augmented forms.
Lineage
A strand of inheritance: stories, gestures, omissions and the quiet labour that moves through families. The work begins by asking what has been carried forward, and what has been concealed.
Family histories · female labour · memoryArchive
Images, fragments and earlier works are not fixed records. They are excavated, re-read and placed into new relationships. The archive becomes an active material rather than a storage place.
Documents · inherited objects · buried projectsSurface
Painting is the visible skin of the practice, but beneath it sit depth, touch, abrasion, repetition and time. The surface holds evidence of what came before and of what is still trying to emerge.
Painting · texture · material processReconstruction
The material unravels and reweaves—translated, re-formed and reimagined through new structures and virtual spaces. The thread does not end in the digital; it changes state and returns to the physical world differently.

An unraveling practice.
Each knot becomes an entrance into a project, archive, body of work or chapter in the wider practice.
