Boubeia series explores female embodiment. By this, I relate to empathy, dissociation, vessels as containers and ultimately an ability to heal and remember the body through making.

Boubeia is an archeological dig into the unconscious via soma ( the body). I use a digital test strips as a play on fractured bodies and a current culture that supports disembodiment, fragmentation and body dysmorphia. I also use previous sculptural material, such as my handblown glass vessels, embroidery scarring work, photography of my nude body and test sampling to create processes within processes as a way to re-organise material, bridge disciplines and find unexpected portals (unexpected openings; aesthetic, bodily and or spiritual) within my multimedia.

Quasi series are sun exposed or cyanotype prints using a collection of earlier works of handblown glass vessels to create a curious formal and disappearing formal language. The interplay of old, new and unfinished material creates a continuum of multilayering and timelessness.

Boubeia studies using ink and discarded and broken wooden print blocks to find the inner goddess within. Resembling ancient dug-up goddesses.
