OMG!
My project is a comment on my own experience of catholicism through a cohesive composition and a visual reconstruction of the Stations of the Cross.
I use historical and spiritual referencing to ask the questions; What if Jesus was a woman? What if she had experienced all of the things Jesus is said to have experienced? What if that woman was living in contemporary society?Â

My art is about connecting with people. It is all-consuming and a constant search for secret codes and hidden meaning in the world that surrounds us. A range of materials are manipulated through this process of making which often result in multimedia installations that make use of the found object, embroidery, sculpture and drawing.
