Part of a body of work investigating the concept of boundaries, questioning their role and exploring the way in which they impinge on our everyday lives. This interest initially arose from examining the context of my practice within the contemporary art world, and the ensuing difficulty in categorizing work that straddles the boundaries between textiles and sculpture.
