Biography

Michelle is an artist living on the fringes of North West Sydney, Dharug Country 

And is pulled towards the national bushland valleys surrounding her home immersing herself 

and exploring the deep relationship with it.

Working with recycled materials and fibre , in recent years Michelle s medium has moved into

the ceramic world, and stuck like mud. While capturing the landscapes in her ceramic pieces, 

Michelles intention is to circle us back into a space of connection to our natural 

surroundings and the energy of it, capturing just beyond the visible

Michelle s work is inherently visceral, intimate and tactile
