Your Value Is
DATE: 9th - 15th of December 2021 @ Victoria College of the Arts Melbourne
*Your Value Is*
*Your value is* comprises a body of work that explores the relationship, and interaction, between identity and value. How is identity formed, and how does it relate to value? Do we need to have value to have an identity and vice versa? Through the lens of a handmade and time-consuming practice, which includes embroidery, crochet, linocut, silk printing, and drawing, my work reflects the ways that identity and value combine and influence each other. My aim is not to provide answers but to set the questions. What happens when identity and value cross borders in a whimsical excursion into a world of colour and texture?

When the minute and second hands overlap
The world holds its breath for a little while”
