In 2024, the Cad Factory launched the CASE Incubator Studio at the Art Gallery of New South Wales. At this event I, as a CASE Incubator program alumna, facilitated a socially engaged making experience with audience members. I turned the results of this experience into an embroidered wall hanging and an accompanying text. Together, these two elements form Tie Together.

Tie Together, outlines a journey, supported by the artwork participants and Sarah and Vic McEwan. It communicates the journey through both the textile piece and a document–which shares the vulnerability, doubt, enthusiasm, perseverance, connection and care that I experienced while creating this work.
