I am drawn to how lichens and mosses bind themselves to place — holding moisture, weaving connections, and building conditions for life to flourish. In thread and fibre, these forms are reimagined as both delicate and enduring, an ecology rendered through slow, attentive labour. Encircled in a wreath of stitch and bead, the work invites reflection on the quiet networks that sustain life.

Embroidery thread, woolen felt, silk ribbon, glass beads.
