Undoing Her, captures a moment when boundaries of form begin to dissolve. Lines blur. Shape distorts. Beneath rippling water florals soften and fragment, a visual echo of how identity can unravel and reshape through life's transitions. Textures and colours melt and blend, taking on painterly qualities. The work reflects a gentle and beautiful undoing.
The composition features dahlias, succulents, strawflowers, fruit and foliage; including silver gum leaves, amaranth, feathery pampas flowers, blackberry, green guava berries and rosehips. With glass and water.

This body of work is a reflective study of Identity as we age. A pondering of midlife shifts.
It explores the space between internal dialogue and external pressure and perceptions, between who we are, and who we think we should be.
In the blur of expectation and identity, this series is a quiet reclamation, shifting our story and letting go of surface narratives to reconnect with the beauty beneath.
The works were created using florals, glass and water, photographed in natural light. Images are blurred by gushing and ripping water poured across glass, the surface in motion, causing soft distortion. Others beneath the weight of the glass, forms warped under pressure.
