The Instagram Diaries
Approaching her work as both artist and historian, she uses visionary imagery to
champion Women and Mother Earth; two critically endangered species.
Each piece she creates tells a story, using traditions of collection, synthesis and cultural interpretation as therapeutic practice. Layering her original photography and paintings with found images and collected ephemera, she creates photographic mixed media pieces with translucent veils of narrative; layers of meaning and memory bleeding through one another, seeking a deeper truth. She does not use AI.
