Extended Family comprises of 5 separate pieces:

’Day for Night’- video projection inspired by Bernard Palissy’s attempts to find the formula for porcelain and François Truffaut’s 'La Nuit americaine’. Day for night is a filming technique to shot night scenes in daylight. In Truffaut’s 1973 movie, life and fiction are layered, mixed and embedded and the faux night reflects my experience of family.

‘Kintsugi’- a living meadow. As a philosophy, Kintsugi treats breakage and repair as part of the history of an object, rather than something to disguise.

'People are more fragile than things’- porcelain sculptures influenced by Bruce Chadwin’s ‘Utz, a childhood memory and Judy Chicago’s ‘The Dinner Party’.

'Barbe Bleu’- colour photographs. In Charles Perrault’s ‘Bluebeard', a new bride discovers the dead bodies of her predecessors in a locked room. This piece is inspired by my mother and my three step-mothers and makes allusion to Margaret Atwood’s ‘The handmaid tale’ in which women are callously used.

‘Laboureur’- photographic print. ‘I watched the collection of soaps grow looking at the pastel colours, the different shapes, noted the smells and wondered at the complexity of the world’.
