Astroläbe x Biodiversa Foundation all female group show. New York.
My painting 'Lullabies In The Garden of Calamity' was part of this all female group show in New Yor. The Natura Exhibition aims to raise awareness and gather support for the conservation and restoration efforts within El Silencio Nature Reserve and Research Station, a 3,300 ha area of lowland humid forests and wetlands in Colombia.
This exhibition beautifully blends art and science, showcasing the works of 25 female artists from diverse backgrounds. Their creations were inspired by audio recordings of humid forest soundscapes collected during scientic research conducted by Fundación Biodiversa Colombia. Throughout the exhibition, we plan to disseminate our research through public talks and multimedia presentations, shedding light on the region’s biodiversity conservation initiatives.
The forthcoming Natura Exhibition will be on show at theAstrolabe Contemporary Art Gallery in Downtown Manhattan, NYC

New painting 'Flour' on show at OREXARTS new gallery space.
'Flour' which has been a painting a year in the making is being exhibited in Orexart's new gallery space in Ponsonby Rd. This painting was response to the lockdown and was inspired by my own focus around food, providing and scarcity of a take for granted commodity.

Fantastic Beasts Group Show
Corey Helford Gallery, Los Angeles
'Into This Wilde Abyss' was part of a group show celebrating fantastical creatures that have captured our imaginations throughout history. Drawing from the imagination of Phillip Pullman I wanted to create a version of Lyra and Pan at the brink of their journey. To me they are both Fantastical beasts and their journey into the ‘wilde abyss’ is one we can all relate to. Throughout our lives we are often faced with challenges, new journeys and unsteady ground beneath our feet. We choose our companions for these journeys whether they be family, friends or our own inner strengths. I like to imagine these inner strengths and individual characteristics as illustrated by Pullman in his Dark Materials series - our greatest companions can be ourselves.
