View online THE STORM
Unsettling and tumultuous, THE STORM approaches rapidly, sending out ripples of energy.
Dead Reckoning is a convergence of works made across my health journey – Uncharted Waters, Voyage to Disaster, Wayfaring – anchored in limestone reefs, the Abrolhos Islands and the Batavia wreck.

Recent creative pursuits brave the unknown through ferocious seas, navigation methods, shipwrecks, to find different ways of being.
THE STORM features Dead Reckoning, a showcase of select works from Voyage to Disaster, with a series of hand drawn nautical charts, and an elemental embracing of my changed body- ‘I AM the storm’.
Sharing stories is my passion.

Wayfaring collection
An act of empowerment. A reminder of one’s own powerful ability to embody positivity, inspiration, resilience, protection, to create healing and growth, and to declare of personal intentions.

Don’t Ignore the Periphery artwork
Don’t Ignore the Periphery embraces the edges—both physical and metaphorical.
Intricate contemporary jewellery and sculptural objects, juxtaposed against expressive monotypes.
Wearable Narratives

Every piece of jewellery holds a little story — a colour that meant something, a shape that stuck with me, a word I couldn’t let go of.
If one calls to you – maybe it’s meant to be part of your own story now?
