Her dual cultural heritage from Switzerland and Nigeria is reflected in her hand-dyed, handwoven work. Her sources of inspiration are the harmonious colors and textures of nature. Her mentors are the traditional weavers and dyers of South Asia, Japan, and West Africa. She uses the beauty of natural fibers such as linen, silk, hemp, and alpaca. Fusing the subtle radiance of natural dyes, natural fibers, and traditional techniques she creates simple, elegant wearable pieces.
