I am a textile artist and educator based in Lakefield Ontario whose work is firmly rooted in the study and craft of feltmaking and incorporates, dying, hand-stitching and machine embroidery. My work begins with the simplest of materials, wool, water and soap. Using my hands to agitate the fibres I create textile. I am continually intrigued by the simplicity of the process and how it can be applied in infinitely complicated ways.
My art/craft practice involves a combination of creating functional felted objects, wearable pieces and conceptual textile art which explores narratives of what it is to be human and the connections between us. In all my work I look to experiment with colour, texture, surface design, and form.
