Some work from 2022: an experimental piece using the husk of corn grown in my backyard 🌽 Combining some of my favourite things: growing plants + making!

Consisting of three stackable compartments that can be arranged into different colour orders.

Unfortunately part of this piece went walk abouts during a display, so it is no longer. Onto the next crop for future making.

Excited to be part of the show ‘Beyond Ordinary’ at , opening this weekend.

The exhibition runs from 13th Feb - 3rd April: “In the first exhibition of this scale to highlight women makers in a traditionally male dominated medium, 28 of Australia’s most inspiring women woodworkers and makers will showcase their work at Sturt Gallery.”

A shout out to Rose for delivering this for me (who has an amazing piece in the show also)!
