Fragments
Fragments is a body of work about interruption, memory, incompleteness and the small remains of experience.
Repetition and tactile structure hold together pieces that feel partial, provisional or unresolved.
The work is less interested in completion than in what remains when something has already shifted, broken, faded or been left behind.

Its lacy doily motif in earthy brown summons the rugged whisper of forgotten heirlooms, crafted from coarse, thick recycled cotton that subverts the fragile daintiness of conventional patterns — probing the paradox: can delicacy bloom from raw coarseness, or tenderness refine the unyielding?

Artwork record
A vibrant piece composed of integrated granny squares crocheted from recycled cotton yarn in lively orange, earthy brown, and verdant green hues. Its lacy motifs bloom like autumn foliage, evoking the whimsical sprawl of a harvest field — pumpkins nestled amid twisting vines and fertile soil — capturing the ephemeral joy of seasonal abundance within nature's cycles. Inspired by growth, decay, and memory's tender hold, this piece celebrates vitality and joy, inviting contemplation of life's fleeting bounties woven into textured harmony.
Bootie
04Fragments · 2025 · Pure cotton crochet
Artwork record
Bootie is a poignant crochet piece crafted from pure cotton in gradated earthy tones, transitioning from deep brown to soft beige. The form evokes a single infant shoe, deliberately left unfinished, with loose, untucked yarn dangling like unresolved sorrows. The frayed ends quietly speak of halted journeys and interrupted potential.
Inspired by a deeply personal recounting of an unborn child's loss on its anniversary, this solitary piece honours all who have endured the profound pain of loving and losing. Its incomplete state mirrors the abrupt void left by unfulfilled lives and the lingering grief that resonates silently in the heart.
Probing themes of absence, fragility, and emotional resonance, the work invites solemn reflection on life's delicate threads, where tenderness meets irrevocable rupture.
The Foreigner

Artwork record
The Foreigner is an exaggerated, elongated crochet piece, meticulously crafted with alternating light pink and brown hues. The scarf is composed of integrated granny squares featuring lacy, openwork motifs that evoke fragile connections and subtle dissonances. The final square diverges in colour yet strives to harmonise with the whole, reflecting the tension of an outsider seeking belonging amid unfamiliar weaves — where conformity and individuality coexist in delicate balance.
Inspired by themes of identity and displacement, this piece examines the emotional layers of assimilation and isolation. It invites contemplation on the beauty and ache of incomplete harmony, and on the subtle pull of roots that are uprooted and rethreaded.
Spilt Orange Juice

Artwork record
Its waffle-like weave in soft beige conjures the gentle warmth of sunlit soil, abruptly interrupted by a bold orange streak cascading downward — like rays spilling across parched ground or juice staining a morning tablecloth — encapsulating transient mishaps and lingering emotional traces. Drawing from themes of impermanence and memory's tenuous grip, this work highlights the delicate friction between order and disarray, prompting contemplation of grief woven into mundane transience.
