Research Interests

I am a textile artist fascinated with birdlife and the natural dye colours found in native plants at my Songlark Studio on Dabee/Wiradjuri Country in the Capertee Valley. I am knitting all of the bird species that I see and am keen to raise awareness of endangered species and how joyful the connection to Country is.
I volunteer with Wirimbili Cultural Experience, the North East Wiradjuri Cultural Centre and am on the committee for the WAYOUT Artspace, Kandos and the Australian Walking Artists.
