I make jewellery that melds the narratives of home, workshop and motherhood, to explore power and gender and the subtle and sometimes not so subtle burden they place on women.
Drawing on the previous function of objects from domestic, industrial and utilitarian realms, these jewellery re-contextualisations traverse tense and complex territories between people, bodies and things, to open a space for engagement and debate about womanhood and the emotional labour of parenting.
