About the practice
I am a solar punk crone who works with remainded and discarded natural materials to make artworks and useful objects. I promote visible mending and rug making to prolong the life of precious textiles. I embroider my feelings about politics and climate change. I offer workshops in embroidery on vintage textiles, rug making and basketry.
