My work is informed by a philosophical and spiritual engagement with Buddhist ideas, particularly in response to environmental concerns. In this work I wanted to challenge myself and explore the limits of clay material. Clay allowed me to express myself and free my mind. When I revisited Australia in 2010 form my residency, the natural environment here still was the best to me.

"This work is inspired by the story of Li Bai (701-762), the greatest romantic poet in Tang Dynasty of China. Bai was given a post at the Hanlin Academy, which served to provide a source of scholarly expertise for the emperor. He was dismissed for an unknown indiscretion and was sent into exile to the south-west by the Emperor. Thereafter, he wandered throughout China for the rest of his life. His creative inspiration emerged while drinking alcohol. His remaining 1,100 poetic creations reflect his unrestricted, romantic spirit." - Liu Xian Feng

"This work is about the 'Buffalo Boy and the Seventh Fairy' from Chinese folklore. The Emperor of Heaven’s seventh daughter loved the buffalo boy. She left heaven and went down to the earth and married him. She became a weaver to make a living, while he tended buffalos. Their life was very happy, and they had a daughter and a son. However, the Emperor got angry and sent heaven’s military to bring her back. The Emperor would allow them to meet at the other side of the Milky Way on the night of the seventh of July every year. On this night, many birds would gather to form a bridge across the Milky Way. Every year they had a family reunion on the 'bridge of birds’." - Liu Xian Feng

This purse is an example of what is often described as the 1930s anachronistic meeting of industrial Art Deco and the arts and crafts movement, hand crocheted silk meeting geometric frames made of the 'modern' xylonite, an early version of bakelite. The Australian Arts and Crafts movement was at this time very focused on creating a notably 'Australian' design, utilising brown earthy tones and 'natural' shapes, such as this purse's spiral drawing on straw and taffeta purses of previous decades.Circular mount purse with xylonite chain interwoven with brown crocheted chain. Outside brown hand crocheted criss-cross stitch with scalloped edge. Xylonite mount with fleur-de-li patterning, edged with gold and black bead seed bead clusters. Opens with a push latch. Lined with a pink silk jacquard, opening embroidered with pink and green flowers. handicrafts, crochet, bags, handbags, purses, crocheting, wool, silk, cotton, 1930s, 30s, art deco, xylonite
