"I love Pacifica art and adornment which has a strong influenced in my Practice. My work is about light, colour ,movement in form. Working with light reflections is often the most important element in my work. That's what excites me. I enjoy the elusiveness of light it's way of changing when it's looked at and how it changes when it's worn."
