My body of work explores the concept of identity and how it affects our everyday environment. I was inspired by the diversity of my own cultural background as well as the interconnectedness of cultures within suburban Australian architecture. I have repurposed found objects to create three terrace-inspired buildings, each inhabited by a person or people who have adapted their homes to reflect their cultural identity. I anthropomorphise these structures by combining iconic Australian architecture and cultural signs and symbols that represent their inhabitants.
