My practice explores joy through the technique of needle felting. Using natural materials like wool, coconut coir, and mycelium (fungi), I create vibrant wall hangings and soft sculptures inspired by childhood memories, nature, and everyday moments. Playfulness and humour are core elements of my work, reconnecting people with their inner child.Focus:Needle FeltingCommissions:Available for commissionsIn my practice I work fully with natural materials, both traditional and unconventional ones to the world of craft like wool, coconut coir, mycelium and milk-based paint.
