Her transfixing depictions of her time exploring the Ashmolean Museum create the base for these animations. The animations and poems are inspired primarily by a painting of the city of Aubusson, by Marcel Gromaire.

- Strike (2019) - Props and SetsI worked on sets and models for an exciting stop animation feature film, 'Strike', for Gigglefish Studio. Working in a wide variety of materials, I produced high-quality, detailed miniatures to bring life to each meticulous scene. The work I produced ranged from 5-inch tall potted plants, to a forest of pine trees made from layers of fur, to a full set of the Moscow Kremlin.
