COLLECTIVA is the creative consequence of my work as a personal assistant-slash-event-organiser-and-fundraiser, and my long-held fascination with creating, making and designing - the latter with a specific interest in horticulture, after qualifying as a garden designer and working with my husband for many years. 

​

I recently curated and organised an exhibition during Artwave 2025 at a new venue from conception to completion. It was a success on several levels with the venue booked again for 2026. Critically, the experience allowed me to further my comprehensive understanding of the obstacles artists and artisans face when trying to reach an audience and sell their work.
