Striding over rolling hills women (inclusive of all people who identify as women) the works depicted women walking through greenways cultivating strength within themselves.

A Flag for the Moon, a hand-sewn textile work using appliqué technique was installed in the churchyard grounds of Wells Cathedral, the first Gothic Cathedral to be built in England, famed for its unique architecture, the West Front, features 300 medieval carvings. A Flag for the Moon was chosen for the Wells Art Contemporary, 2022 from 3,200 submissions from 1,600 creatives, who entered from 47 different countries.

City of Yarra, Garden State Festival, Fitzroy, Melbourne.

A successful grant submission to Yarra City Arts saw the creation of Altar for the Moon for the Garden State Festival 2022. The work was a collaboration with Vespertine Flora. Altar for the Moon was an installation of floral ephemera that was both sensorial and evocative. My work consisted of sculpture in the form of a wooden altar adorned and painting in acrylic on wood. I also created a digitally illustrated and downloadable guide to creating a moon garden accessible by QR code located at the site installation.
