WORK
My work moves between material research, textile making, research-creation, and participatory practice. Projects often begin with a material or question and develop through experimentation, observation, research, and repeated making.
MATERIAL RESEARCH · 2025–2026
Untapped Potential: Ontario Wool
This research explores why Ontario wool is undervalued and underused, while demonstrating its potential through material experimentation, community research, and textile making.

COMMUNITY PRACTICE · 2025
Plants & Prints
The eco-printing workshop invited participants to slow down, explore relationships between people and materials, and learn through making together.

RESEARCH-CREATION · 2026
Sheep Portrait
Sheep Portrait is a research-creation project that transforms locally sourced Ontario sheep fleeces into a portrait, reconnecting the material with the sheep, farmers, and landscapes it comes from.

TACTILE RESEARCH · 2026

This project aimed to recycle garments and turn them into something entirely new.

EARLIER EXPLORATIONS
Earlier projects trace the development of my interest in textiles, material transformation, sustainability, and hands-on making.
FASHION COLLECTION · 2024
CONTRADICTION
The collection is inspired by Mao Tsu-tung’s revolution and explores the underlying psychology that shaped his decisions and behaviour. This theme delves into the intricate interplay of historical events, personal motivations, and political ideals, particularly during the significant period of the Cultural Revolution.
