Seed Dispersal:2020

A flower head of patterned seeds is carefully separated, documented, and assigned a recipient. Then they are sent off, dispersed somehow collectively. What I enjoyed most about this process was celebrating a beauty in togetherness alongside an equal beauty in individuality. A theme for 2020 as we found ourselves all alone, all together.

The final artwork is a large drawing of each seed given the recipient’s name, accompanied by a booklet of photographs of the resulting flowers; evidencing the diversity of people and their growing spaces so treasured during the lockdowns of 2020.

Shoes which are kept but not worn

Beginning with documenting the shoes of myself, my daughter and my mother. I have come to realise that it is not unusual to keep shoes which can’t be worn, perhaps too old, too small, too uncomfortable, too valuable or too nostalgic. I am slowly gathering a collection of these with the aim to create a larger archive.
