She has said: “If we are lost - then we know we are searching. I like to make jewellery for people who are searching . . .”
In both her jewellery and larger projects similar themes and motifs recur. She often uses the device of the lattice screen- an architectural detail that is a shelter as well as a barrier. It is just one way that she explores her abiding fascination with notions of the public versus the private, the veil, and things which is concealed and therefore precious.
