"Oh I would touch with this love each

wounded place" - Anita Barrows

Through my work, I experiment with various ways to express interconnectivity: between each other, between humans and the Earth, and between the physical and spiritual. Boundaries between the different artistic constructs blur as threads of influence cross between the forms and in turn, cause them to affect each other in many ways. Most recently I am exploring my relationship with place, in particular, the rural community where I live which is changing rapidly with ongoing housing developments. The work becomes my process for coming to terms with the changing landscape and loss of natural habitat.
