Possessing a keen interest in fiction, she enjoys themes such as history, culture, nature and food. She is process-driven and likes to read the manuscript, research the topic and then respond to it. Creating meaningful work with intent drives her practice.
For long, she has been asking herself (and others) if print and the physical book are here to stay, and her conviction in their immortality has only grown over the years.
She is a fervent admirer of children’s illustrated books and finds them the easiest way to dip her toe in unknown territories. She despises the cold because it makes her fingers stiff but completes the work at hand nonetheless.
