The textile smocking techniques and costumes from the archive helped me to link my own practice of drawing with wire. I find that the embroidering conveys a symbolism of storytelling.

Transcripts of memories, anecdotes transports the viewer into different worlds; rich in culture, with different political views, religion or language. I like to express with my art the diversity of opinions from complex pluralist society.

The purpose of encasing the writing in resin is to blur the words to symbolise; thoughts, opinions, perception and how the meaning it might be twisted, unclear or manipulated.
