I am a sculptor and fabricator, creating structures that range from the intimate to the monumental. Namibian by birth and now based in Cape Town, South Africa, I hold both the hands of a craftswoman and the vision of an artist—and I often wonder if those two are so different.
Drawing on my background in film industry fabrication, I approach each project as a visual story, building from a client’s brief into a tangible work of art. I thrive on the unique challenges every commission brings, finding satisfaction in the problem-solving process as much as in the final creation. My professional portfolio spans miniature sets, nine-metre bronze monuments, dinosaur museum displays, architectural finishes, and everything in between. I deeply value constructive client collaboration and, in recent years, have also enjoyed stepping into project management roles on larger works, where co-creation with like-minded colleagues has been especially rewarding.
My personal sculpting style leans toward realism. I work primarily in plasticine clay, casting my pieces as limited-edition bronzes, exhibited and sold in select galleries. Much of my body of work centres on children—their quirky, humbling honesty resonates with the essence of our own inner child, inviting viewers to reconnect with authenticity and playfulness. More recently, my focus has been shifting toward contemplative, introspective themes, a development I follow with curiosity and openness.
