I use making to ask critical questions, generating new understanding and adding meaning through craft, asking what we make, how we make it, and why that matters. I examine ideas like pace, repetition, playfulness and repair through my studio practice. Using found objects and materials like fired ceramics, wood, and textiles, I work interdisciplinarily to make provocative collectable artefacts. I also do practice-based research, curate exhibitions, give workshops and talks, and write.

I am delighted to have been consulting on some research for the British Council: Crafting Futures: In Conversation, a survey on Craft and Design. The British Council together with REDIT and the Craft Revival Trust are launching an open survey aimed at those who have made collaborations between the fields of craft and design in Argentina.

This past month I’ve been really enjoying designing activities for the Museum of Childhood blog and news letter all about repairing and caring for our things.
