My Background is in ceramic Sculpture. Lime stone sculpture first grabbed me in 1998 while I was working full-time as a potter in a gallery in New Zealand. At that time, I fell in love with the Oamaru stone and endeavored to sculpt with it.
I had my Oamaru stone sculpture show in 1999, in Christchurch, New Zealand.
My sculpture of a woman’s figure was commissioned to become the Daphne Award for the BPW New Zealand (Business & Professionals Women’s Clubs Incorporated.)
in 2000. The BPW found my sculpture to be very symbolic of the values that they identified strongly with. From that point forward, I was determined to open my studio to follow my passion for sculpture.

It took 8 years to establish my stone sculpture studio in Seoul, Korea in 2007. In that period, I worked as a ceramic potter for a few years in France and New Zealand, held a number of painting exhibitions, took some design/decoration commission works and taught sculpting to children at an international school in Europe.

I decided to continue creating similar designs to the one I created for BPW: a feminine figure, but this time at a much larger scale (over 2.1 tones) 3m long, in a more evolved shape and named it “Aotearoa,” which is the Maori name for New Zealand and literally means “The land of the long white cloud.” in 2008.
I ‘ve created “ Baram” another 2tonnes weighted sculpture which has a male form and symbolic element of wind for the Oamaru stone sculpture exhibition of New Zealand Unlimited in 2009.

Free Spirit, Beauty, Nature and the strength in women are inspirations to me in all my artwork. Symbolic simplicity is the art form I pursue.

I have opened the Solar Art Studio in the end of 2007 in Incheon, which is the Oamaru stone sculpture studio taking commissioned works for corporations and private individuals.
