The artist’s work explores the human frame in line and form and the experiences which mould our bodies and alter them. The resulting studies of sinewy muscles, paper dry wrinkles, bone jutting through skin and the play of light over them make for powerful viewing. She explores a variety of media including threads stitched through cotton as a method of drawing.
