Here's what I made for another exhibition. I have to admit, there's not a lot of meaning behind it except that I have often seen faces in leaves and when I looked at this face I saw leaves. My doll for Totem has safely arrived in Melbourne too!
Argh. My fingers are about to fall off but the doll is finally ready to fly over to Melbourne for the Fringe Festival! Yay! I hope she will be happy to be in "Totem"! She is supposed to be a spiritual self-portrait. As Tori says: "Maybe she's just pieces of me you've never seen..." Hmm... That reminds me, you can probably tell I've reading Neil Gaiman's Sandman series again... Hello, Delirium!
I make things! My toys are mostly made from re-cycled materials such as old buttons, zips and clothes and the stuffing from unloved pillows. I sometimes use new materials along with the old ones but the main aim of my toys is to recycle stuff! I also like to crochet, make sculptures, print t-shirts, draw and write comics and write poems and stories and make short films. I collect beach glass, cat whiskers and other peoples shopping lists!
My toys and/or zines have been sold at: Pocket Space, Small Rhino, Area 52 and Sticky.
