Connections 

This collection is composed from two connected experiences. One in Italy and the other in Adelaide. Both evoke for me remembered encounters in real time and the imagined narratives of an encounter with the Pulcinella of Tiepolo in Venice. The characters meet, play music, set up small theatres and attend meetings of great import.

Botanical Reliquaries

My artistic journey is deeply rooted in my Sicilian heritage, my Australian way of life, and my fascination with the natural world. Having worked in high fashion and theatre, I developed an appreciation for materiality, craftsmanship, and the harmony between form and function.

These experiences continue to shape my approach to art, where beauty and storytelling intertwine. Through ceramics, metal sculpture, and painting, I explore the connections between flora, fashion, and cultural identity. Inspired by botanical collections and the way plants are catalogued and preserved, I see parallels between the adornment of nature and the way fashion enhances the human form.

My work seeks to give new life to organic elements, transforming them into objects that invite curiosity and contemplation. I strive for my art to feel accessible rather than pretentious — an ongoing conversation between tradition and reinvention, history and the contemporary.

Everything, for me, is an herbarium to study and discover.
