  • Artist’s Statement

    I am a creative professional operating in Toowoomba. My millinery designs enable the wearer to fully explore their internal creative self, or to enjoy a costume, allowing them to become a character in their own, real-life, everyday, performance. While I am inspired by 1930's Art Deco style, I also seek to generate a sense of movement in my pieces. I facilitate millinery workshops in Toowoomba at Cobb & Co Museum and USQ, and in metropolitan and remote areas. I completed my Bachelor of Creative Arts (Visual Arts) in 2017 at USQ and will complete the Honours year (BCAH) in 2018 at USQ. I am researching the historical and contemporary interpretation of site-specific art and how that applies to Australian and international artists today. This research will form the cornerstone of my PhD Thesis commencing in 2019 at USQ.
