My work is grounded in place. I take photographs while walking through the New Zealand landscape, capturing textures, rhythms, and fleeting details. These images are not direct references, but prompts: marks in sand, tangled roots, weathered surfaces.
Back in the studio, they become starting points for stitched responses. Through thread and cloth, I translate these observations into layered, tactile surfaces. The work becomes a conversation between site and sensation, where landscape is remembered not as image, but as texture, atmosphere, and movement, something felt through the body as much as seen.
