ART STORY
Inspired by crystallised veins fracturing through the earth as winter gives way to spring, this piece explores the moment when frozen structures begin to soften and break apart. Layers of soft pink, mauve, violet, pale blue and turquoise spread across the fabric, while branching lines travel through the surface like mineral veins beneath melting ice. Organic variations in the dye create depth and movement, revealing deeper layers of colour as the formations fracture and open. The result is a quiet study of transformation, capturing the tension between stillness, release and renewal.

RESTORED FRAME
Each frame is carefully restored in my Western Australian studio. Old nails and hardware are removed, the frame is cleaned and, where needed, lightly sanded and treated to care for the wood. New hanging hardware is fitted to ensure the finished piece is secure and ready to display. Original marks, imperfections and signs of age are retained where they form part of the frame’s character and history.
CAREFULLY FINISHED
Each artwork is finished and protected using acid-free, buffered framing paper. The paper provides a protective backing while allowing the framed piece to breathe, creating a considered finish designed to protect the artwork over time.
RECLAIMED STORY
This piece brings together two reclaimed materials with a new purpose. The artwork is created from rescued premium fabric, hand-dyed and transformed into textile art, then housed in a hand selected frame that has been given a second life. By combining existing materials rather than producing new ones, each piece diverts usable resources from landfill while creating something entirely original. Due to the organic nature of ice-dyeing and the sourcing of quality reclaimed frames, these statement pieces are fundamentally unique and cannot be replicated. Each piece represents a unique expression of renewal and possibility.
This artwork is available for local collection from Coolbellup, Western Australia. Interstate and international freight may be available by arrangement. Contact Us About Delivery Options.
