Ephemeral twines eternal, becomes a poem of life written by time. My work explores ideas around life and time. Fabric and watercolour are my main mediums. For me, the process of gathering, sewing, and painting fabric is not only a making process and transformation of material, but a way to explore the ‘life’ of the material and thus become a way to understand life.
