Theyimmersive textile installation focuses on the experiences of being neurodivergent and chronically ill. It reframes knitting and crochet as essential practices of connection, resilience, and self-regulation, encouraging my audience to engage with alternative sensory, temporal, and emotional realities. By transforming the process of neurodivergent survival into a shared experience, the work addresses the invisibility of individuals with a disability and interrogates feminist labour as a space of care, agency, and shared embodiment.
For tens of thousands of years, the First Peoples of this land have nurtured rich, continuous cultural and artistic practices. Some of the earliest weavers of fibre, land, story, and community.
I acknowledge the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the land on which I live, learn, create and rest, the Boonwurrung and Woiwurrung peoples of the Eastern Kulin Nations.
I pay my respects to their Elders past and present, and extend that respect to all First Nations people reading this.
Sovereignty was never ceded. This always was, and always will be, Aboriginal land.
