‘Drawn from the Garden’ was a three person exhibition held at Sturt Gallery from May to July 2022. I exhibited work along with Julie Ryder (textile artist) and Fiona Hiscock (ceramicist). The work we produced indicated our connection with our immediate environments and inspired by our observations and discoveries.

My ‘gardeners’ series built on and used some of the work I made for Death of a craft exhibition from 2017. I really enjoyed getting the older work out and making new bodies from plants found during my walks.

I used the concept of the warrior to indicate the battles we have in our gardens - fighting the weeds, keeping the water up in the long dry Australian summers and warding off unwanted visitors to the garden.
