AUSTRALIAN Flora & Fauna Designs
A collection of print designs, created in multiple colour variations for use across textiles and other products. The works were made for an Australian homeware boutique when I lived in Melbourne. These motifs celebrate Australian amazing nature through a cheerful color palette and a clean, minimalist Nordic style.






Combining functionality and fun, to create things that both serve and delight.
AI-ASSISTED CREATIONS
Iโm exploring the world of AI art and its many tools, while thinking how they could be used responsibly โ balancing innovation with fairness โ and on the role of artists in this changing landscape. I’ve found AI useful especially in visualizing concepts. My goal is to create work that stays true to my vision and preserves the human perspective.
Cloud Popsicle
A playful concept piece exploring how AI can help bring a simple idea – in this case, a cloud popsicle – to life.
Starting with hand-drawn idea sketches, I used AI tools to expand on the visual language, generating image variations that helped refine the concept and visual a sense of form and texture in motion.





Imagined people, unseen breeds and tweaked landscapes

Seeking clarity and joy.
VISUALISATIONS

“Seeing the forest from the trees and also the tree from the forest.“
