She strives to create visually poetic work investigating the connection between humans and nature, land and place, the physical and the ephemeral. Her international reputation has grown through interdisciplinary collaborations of art and science exploring landscape and nature to create site-responsive artworks examining the amplified response that a physical engagement with the natural environment has the power to evoke. She has been commissioned in 2018 to collaborate on ‘Art, Ecology & Science Project’ in USA, Sweden & Australia as well as another project examining threatened species in Australia. She has been selected for BOAA, Biennale Of Australian Art 2018.
