01 Urchin

I collected these shells on the shoreline of the Palm Jumeirah island in Dubai. Even though the island is artificial, the shells still wash up majestically on the shore. The sculpture can be placed on any side and it will balance, giving it a hovering effect.

03 Toothpick balls

These sculptures are part of a series made during the first 8 weeks of the COVID-19 pandemic with my flatmate. We first made natural bamboo balls and then experimented with different designs using food dye, fabric dye and metallic spray paint.

02Deer antlers

Fallow deer antlers naturally shed every year and were collected in remote Queensland. They were painted and hot glued to a wall, they cast shadows on the wall at different angles. I have since experimented with luminescent paint.
