This is the beautiful Malmhìn, she is a magical Moth Fairy I made her in a slightly new way, creating her cloth body parts in different pieces and connecting them with a ‘web’ of string which is visible and part of her aesthetic. I also hung moths made of card covered in fabrics, paint, gold powder, paint and varnish, from her arms and body with strings.

It is terrifying and inspiring at the same time… But it is only because of you people out here that I feel confident enough to do this, for which I am very grateful! Creating has always been my one and only passion, it is the reason I get up in…
