'Changing Lanes' was stitched from Spring into Summer, mostly while travelling on the train between the Highlands and Sydney. When it started, there was an interconnected vibe to my life. Like all the separate activities just fit together. However, my daily rhythms shifted and needed to be rebuilt.
It will be on show at Penrose Art Exhibition 17, 18 & 19 April 2026
