As an artist I am of the strong belief that Art is not only about the beautiful but equally has the potential to reflect and challenge and lead the discussion on issues of importance to our Society. 

​My life's experience as teacher, mother and grandmother has given me a deep concern regarding the threats and issues which threaten the lives of our children in the future. For this current series of works I am repurposing childrens' toys, deconstructing and reassembling them and am excited to discover a great potential to express and communicate  some of these issues.
