Created together with a group of girlfriends, the 'Angel of Motherhood' represents the beauty and struggles of motherhood. She stands proud in the studio garden as a reminder of the strength and patience this role demands, and the lifelong friendships that are often created as a result.

'Monsta in my Belly!' 2017
I created this piece in 2017 while 6 months pregnant with my second child. I was given this giant leaf by a neighbour while visiting my family in France. After carefully cutting it for transportation and gluing it back together in germany, I created a winged angel using a plaster cast of my abdomen together with a mannequin bust, plaster of paris, serviettes, paint and artificial flowers.
