This is where she first experimented with latex as a new medium. After finishing her degree, she moved to London where she worked for 12 years as a commercial graphic artist. It was during this time that she had the idea of using latex to create something unique in the art world. “The idea came in a flash of inspiration, while I was working on a latex outfit for myself. Visually it’s such a beautiful material it really deserves to be looked at and admired.” Spending years working with latex, she has carved a unique niche with her art.
