dandelion soup

The root and tea leaf tonic is used medicinally to balance the body, acting on the kidneys as a gental diuretic, improving the way they cleanse the blood and recycle nutrients.

Each bird's nest was hand constructed from similar materials to that specific origin, species and breed of bird. The fascination with birds and their nesting practices is intertwined with memories of play and how we excise old wounds and build anew.

obsession

An installation of fourteen "doors" and nine "windows" replicating the configuration of my great grandparents decaying, collapsing house.

The canvases are layered to create the physical structural surface of doors and windows. The installation in its entirety included eighty-three separate canvases assembled to embody each passageway through the old house.

A magical escape or a haunting haven of loss and intrigue.
