My art practice is influenced by my own somatic body practices of Tai Chi Qigong, Yoga and the Feldenkrais Method, which involve heightened body awareness and movement of the body within space.

I create mixed media sculptures using papers, especially natural fibre hand-made papers of Abaca (banana fibre) and Kozo (mulberry bark fibre), for their translucent, skin-like qualities and plasticity. My sculptures are both small-scale and large suspended mixed media installations and shelter-like structures in public venues, which visitors can enter. These are transient structures which I can reassemble and reconfigure. My artwork has been influenced by the Italian Arte Povera movement, since I lived and worked in Italy.
